[quote=Anonymous]I'm very much the same way. Parents grew up poor and thrifty; moved themselves up to middle class through lots of saving and being frugal. I found Ramit Sethi's book "I will teach you to be rich" to be helpful--discusses the concept of a "rich" life--as identifying what priorities you have and how you can use money to support the things that make you the happiest/fulfilled, while not spending on things that you don't find important. This really helped me--while I also find that it makes me feel really happy that I never have to think twice about activities/classes/opportunities/toys for my kids, I couldn't care less about having a fancy car, or designer clothes, etc. [/quote]
