When You Are Not From A Rich Family

I have been watching dramas on rich families fighting over money/everything and I'm just glad I'm not from a rich family. It just seems like money is more important than their family, I guess because they aren't 100% related (same dad, different moms)? Even if they were 100% related, siblings will still fight over inheritance, as long as there are money involved. I'm happy with what I have, a simple family.

When you are not from a rich family you know you have to spend money wisely because you know how hard it is for your parents to earn money. However, no matter how hard it is to earn money, parents will always buy us the stuff we want (most of the time). I know not all parents would do that for their kids and I'm happy to have parents that would.

When I was young I always whine to buy this and buy that and get upset when my parents don't get it for me. Then after a bit my parents would ask do you want it? I'll reply, no don't want it anymore (unhappily). Then they will say if you want it, we'll get it.

As I got older I realized how hard it is to earn money. Why did I always whine to buy this and that? I guess some things you will just realize when you get older? Most of the stuff I got are just sitting there collecting dust... I'm still buying so much useless stuff, don't ask why. I don't know the reason myself. My mom always gets mad at me for buying so much stuff online... =( It's hard to buy a house nowadays, what 's the point of saving so much? Might as well spend it and make myself happy, kind of help me de-stress.

Now that I'm earning money, I give back to my parents. I want them to live the best lives that they can. If they want something, I'll get it for them. I just want them to be happy and healthy after all the hard times raising 2 little monkeys up. I treat them like kids now. =)

I remembered when I was young, my parents would buy me birthday cakes, those Chinese style cake with white cream all over and you get to pick a cute character to put in the middle. I was in elementary back then, one year when mom took me to go pick a cake, I actually said... I don`t want a cake, it`s expensive, I rather spend money on other food. Not too sure why I said that, I guess I knew I'm not from a rich family and those are "luxury" items that I didn't need. My parents did stop buying me cakes (and presents) ever since and now I buy them cakes. =) Not always because they are getting old, can't have too much sugar (I can't too). =( I get them designer cakes and they are like so expensive, the normal big cakes are the same price, just get those next time. I'm like it's different, those are so normal, these are designer cakes. I just want to give them the best things, they deserve it!

Money is important but I don't think it's as important as my family. <3

Is money more important than your family?

Sorry no song, been a bit busy with life.
