[mom-from-missouri]

I rank at the top. Most of my friends are either single with no kids, or married with older kids and have 2 full time incomes. I am a single (divorced) mom with 3 young children trying to make it on my own. I am buying my home, and trying to double up on retirement-to make up for no spouse. I make very very good money, so most of my friends do not understand why I don't spend it, and take the fancy trips,eat out all the time and such with them.
