[quote=Anonymous]I have a different perspective. I grew up poor, and my parents both worked hourly jobs, and I don't think it impacted me negatively long term. I learned the value of hard work, and I put myself through college and grad school and now I work in a career that pays 6 figures. What I would have liked more was to have happy parents - parents doing work that was satisfying to them, so even on the bad days there was something better to look forward to. Eventually my mom finished college and had a steady "salary" job, and that was better. That was my long way of saying you need to make yourself happy, and that will have a huge impact on your kids - bigger than I think is realized. [/quote]
