haha I agree too!

My parent's had very very little growing up. Their parents wouldn't pay for their colleges, made them work since they were 14 etc, so my parents wanted to make sure that us kids had the opportunities they never had.

My parents were also married at 22 and had me at 23 (also still married and more in love than ever) and at first they couldn't do a whole lot for us.. but as my dad worked harder and advanced in his job, they wanted to make sure we had what we needed.

I wasn't offered life on a silver platter at all.. and through their help they've also taught me the importance of work, and I can see their pride when they talk about the fact that they were able to send all three kids to whatever college we wanted to, when they weren't able to because of zero funds.

I think they taught me well.. but I can't lie.. I walk around in 150 dollar pants and 250 dollar coach purses.. BUT i bought them all myself, and I've worked partime since I was 16 to learn the value of money. I'm not spoiled.. I just have very good taste
