Well, all in all Its a long story. I grew up in a lower middleclass family, with 4 sisters and 1 brother. My mom was self employed and to be honest was not really around alot because of this. but she kept food on the table, and a roof over our heads so I consider her a blessing. I never remember getting an allowance and if I was ever given money, it burnt a whole in my pocket so I spent it on the closest thing. i Like to think that this kinda set the pattern for my adult life, because thats pretty much how I am now.
I am now 29, married, and still broke. I did decent for a while income wise, but Inever saved, and accumulated a LOT of stuff. I am not a pack rat, or a hoarder but I do have a lot of stuff. the fact that I am usually broke has made me an extra-ordinary bargain shopper! I never buy anything at full price. not even groceries.
