No, I've thought the same about them over the years. It's sort of a false pride. Mom loves to "brag" about how poor they were when she was a kid during the depression. And they really weren't compared to so many. They certainly never went hungry and they all got sent to college.

>>cheapness=mental disease>>
I agree. This doesn't sound like how a rich kid from NY would turn out, unless, he is sick.
