DH and I are financially secure. Not wealthy by any stretch of the word, but comfortable enough not to worry about bills. I am 60, DH 61 and we earned every penny to be where we are. Our parents grew up in the Depression era and taught us to be wise with $. A poem I heard constantly was:
Use it up,
Wear it out,
Make it do,
Or do without.
My granddaughters make a game of picking up every coin they see on the ground. They have a "found money" (literally) Mickey Mouse bank to keep it in. In 3 years they had $26.41 cents to spend on our last WDW trip.
Yes, we are proud penny pinchers!
