My wife and I came from desperately poor families and as a consequence have lived our entire life way BELOW our means. We have no debt (and I mean house, two cars, and credit cards paid off). We have a tidy bit of savings and investments.
And every night I go to be worrying about this crap.
It doesn't matter what your situation is, when you have idiots at the controls in Washington, only a fool isn't worried. Until we have a solidly conservative President and a filibuster proof conservative congress, everybody should be worried.
My situation is similar to yours. I lay awake worrying about what kind of country my generation is leaving to our children and grandchildren....
I, also am scared spitless that I could lose all I skimped for.
