[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, OP.  That was normal.  Now avocado toast is normal.  It's all relative, but don't judge your childhood by today's standards.  [/quote]

Right? When I was a child in the 80s bologna sandwiches on wonder bread were normal. Not avocado toast and gluten free pasta. Birthday parties were not at bounce houses, but in the party room in our apartment building with pin thr tail on the donkey. Vacations were to Ocean City and a screen was ONE TV we shared with bunny ears in the living room. I wore jelly shoes and converse. If I was lucky I got the Reebok high tops.

People today wonder why they will work until their are dead? Lol! [/quote]

I haven't been on a vacation in 5 years. And my children have birthdays at home that don't include presents or cake. In fact, we didn't have a Christmas tree for you. We make 200k and do everything possible to live within our means. It isn't avocado toast or lattes we are spending our money on. What country are you even living in because we are obviously in different places![/quote]

Do you have a large family? Large mortgage? Large medical expenses? We were less than that for about 5 years when I SAH but certainly had bday parties, Christmas tree, beach vacations, etc. Maybe daycare? [/quote]
