money memories in the blogosphere

December 20th, 2007

Just after I read Suze Orman’s advice about discovering your earliest money memories and how they affect you, I came across this post: Lessons Never Learned. Not only is Petro a great writer, but his story is engaging.

“*CIP #6: Family Values. Results: I think we’re cool in this regard. A little spend thriftish? Maybe. But I truly believe my wife and I both took the best parts of our respective upbringings and integrated them into our present day lives. Neither one of us came from families of great or even marginal wealth. We both have Poverty-era parents who probably spend a lot of their silent time still worrying about money. My wife and I have a list of things from those wonder years that we ask each other and laugh about on occasion:

“Did you have to bring your brown paper lunch bags back home from school each day to use again the next day?”"
