Yeah.... being rich will not make you happy.....

But truly get your head pressed against the wall financially as in you can't pay the rent.....and won't be having any good days at all.

Those times are past but I know....and I wouldn't wish poverty on anyone.

I grew up middle class, in my early married years, I was dirt poor and I'm now an millionare on paper and I've always been happy. It's nice to be able to pay the rent but it's also quite an adventure trying to figure out how to do it. I've been close to bankruptcy a few times and that is when you pull harder together than ever before. Hard times are the cement that holds you together with friends and family when the gravy comes.
