Re: Did you grow up in a frugal family?
I grew up thinking I was spoiled, I had what I wanted, but then I never wanted designer clothes!
Part of it was no TV, and by the time I had comercials all the time I knew there were better things to spend money on, and I knew my parents worked enough hours for what we did have, no reason to pester them. And oddly enough I was libertarian enough not to feel any of the stuff was 'deserved'.
I suppose if I looked back I could find corners to cut and splurges to make. But I can do that now in my house.
