I grew up solidly middle class, maybe slightly on the upper side of middle class. My dad made between 70-100k growing up. We lived in a beautiful house, always had the latest and greatest game system, owned a computer back in the 80s, etc.  It was a good life.

I'm disappointed that I won't be able to offer my children the same quality of life, but it is what it is.

One time I came into a city I didn't know and I was drinking with these guys and I told them I had no place to stay, and they said they had a good spot.  They slept under a highway overpass over freight train tracks, so every so many minutes a train would roll through blasting it's horn, and the overpass would make it resonate loud as fuck.  It really blew my mind that anyone could sleep there, and I had been up for a couple days I think.  There were like at least 20 people there too.

Main selling point is, "it's the one place in town where cops don't fuck with us"

I opted to sneak by the prison into the woods after that hellish night to set up my hammock.  Since then I have never thought a bed was uncomfortable, no matter how squalid.

This is what I was going to say. Actually growing up not poor has made me not think about money at all growing up. It really had no value to me because it wasn't ever part of my life.

I'd say I grew up in upper middle class. I had everything I needed and lots of toys and video games. My parents didn't buy me brand new cars though, they were cheap used ones and the agreement was I had to get a job to pay for my car insurance and spending money. They payed for my community college, but when I transferred to a university I had to take out a student loan.

My cousins grew up really poor because their parents were meth addicts and didn't always have jobs. I remember them telling me i was rich when I was really young and it was the first time I even thought about it.

Do you not realize that this is an EASY realization to come to when you do not have to worry about it in any way, shape or form? 

Furthermore I don't think there's anything wrong with desiring money. Your parents clearly did desire it, otherwise you would have been able to grow up without ever having to THINK about it. Do you realize what a blessing this is???!

I grew up low middle class and I still consider that privileged but the money story I learned from my parents was that you have to STRUGGLE to get money and then once you have it, it is NEVER, EVER enough.

It's a typical "trustie" mindset yoga.
Growing up around music and festivals and traveling I saw it frequently and the spoiled little rich chics with a black card and dreadlocks are generally despised by most of the people I know.
Fake or not, it is how people view them, especially in Eastern Europe.  I saw hostels turn people away when there were obviously plenty beds, and actually heard a man at a rental in Ukraine tell a group to go find a hotel that he would rather save the room for people who needed and appreciated it. 
Wrong as it may be, it is reality.

I hope to marry a spoiled rich chick and live out the rest of my days as a pampered house husband, I don't care how obnoxious she is.  I want to truly know the worthlessness money brings.

You guys can say whatever you want..call me and sara a trusty..and so on

But its just the truth. When you grow up having money you realize the inner workings of how greed and money chasing is pointless.

Im not saying it in a spoiled way..its just i cant help but to believe money isnt to be desired to the point in runs your life.

I believe in a lot of cases that God chooses the right people to grow up with money. The universe/god knows who is worthy of the money and who isnt.

A wise man once said.."you get what you deserve..thats the way it works"


--------------------
Something there is mysteriously formed,
Existing before Heaven and Earth,
Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging,
All-pervading, unfailing,
I do not know its name; I call it tao.
If forced to give it a name, I call it
Great (ta). Being great, it flows out;
Flowing out means far-reaching;
Being far-reaching, it is said to return.


It's just a shot away..
