markio, i definately agree with you on the first part and the last part... money is not an end but a means to an end, and it's what you do with it that matters... family should be more important than money always...
as long as you're able to get by, which is very important

, there are other things in life...
as for the handouts part, it makes me sad to hear you say that.... although there are many people out there ready to take advantage some of us don't... i've had people (including my mom) ridicule me for not taking advantage but you know what? i'm proud of who i am and reading that just made me even more glad... i'm glad that those in my life with more money can trust me not to be like that...
