If life is all about "stuff," then being poor can suck... 'cause you ain't got nothing. But, if life's happiness is really found in things you can't buy, then you my friend are the rich kid.

Took me several years to figure that out, but I wouldn't trade my impoverished upbringing for anything.

Here's 9 character traits I built over that time. I would have never had these had I not been raised by a single mom in a trailer park.

Faith
Humility
Empathy
Frugality
Work Ethic
Patience
Gratitude
Creativity
True Happiness

I hope you find light in what I'm trying to share. And, if you're rich.. I hope you slow down and take a hard look at what makes you happy.
