I grew up fairly poor. My father was a technician with a drug problem, so whatever extra money he had went to that. I don't speak to him anymore. My mom worked two jobs and went back to school later, and worked hard for everything we had.
We only went on two vacations (Ocean City, Maryland, and Niagra Falls) - but we went camping a lot. And we went to the lakes in the parks nearby.
My sister and I had to take out loans to go to college, and we're still paying them off. Right now I live with her and her boyfriend in a rented house - I have a newer used car. I worked two jobs until recently, but I'm alright financially now.
