way to go really, and it makes a lot of sense. It feels to me that background influences this thinking a lot, having grown up in rather poor circumstances, it is always on the back of my mind too
This period of having high income is new to me. I used to be homeless, living in a truck, couch surfing, begging for money for food and gas.
I'm terrified of losing it all, so I'm doing my best to not put myself in a situation where if I lose my job I lose it all.
They're okay with rolling a $25,000 credit card debt from card to card to fund their life.
I still pick up pennies on the ground.
