    I used to be scared of money but I have had lots of it and very little at different times and now I see the good side of both with and without.

    I'm scared of money.. but I'm bitter with money issues.. mostly bitter for my parents, actually, who don't deserve the financial troubles they have been having for months.. and seeing them affected by it has made me bitter. I have financial issues as well and it does stress me out, I had an ulcer because of it a couple months ago.. but I think things are finally slowly coming into order..

    Beer before food. Good lass. There is hope for you yet. What do you do for money?

    I've been homless and hungry.

    I've never been rich, but I've had more money than I knew what to do with.... and it cost me big by doing the wrong things with it.

    I never worry or obsess about money. I've always either gotten by or bounced back when things crashed.

    I do like the freedom that money can offer. Again, I don't obsess about making or having it because I know I will always find more and more. Every year of my life(edit: that I've been making money), except one, my income has increased. Not only do I expect that to not change, but I expect the increases to start being bigger and bigger.

    It's not money I want or care about. It's freedom that I strive for.

    I am unemployed in the summer time, so from July- Sept 5 we lack fresh fruit in the house... all we have are sunflower seeds right now. And beer and pot.

    :)

    When I think of Adam , I think of freedom.

    I don't like handling money, it makes me uncomfortable, and every job I've had before this one I quit as soon as I started working for the check and not the job itself.

    I love my job, I would do it for less ... I swear. :)

    I also get summers off although I'm sorta broke and it gets super stressful when you're trying to entertain yourselves and pay the bills throughout summer.

    As long as I have enough money to play poker then I'm happy. And go to Bingo.

    I am not real concerned about money. I have all I need.

    I am grateful for all the good I have.

    i've always managed to get by, even when i was unemployed and homeless (that only lasted a couple weeks). i don't buy many things, and it wouldn't be at all hard to cut my bills way down again, although i'd rather not of course. so i have no concerns with running out of money.

    and i sure as hell am not worried about having too much. i have yet to experience the downside of having money, so i am currently fearless about having lots of it...

    I don't have enough at the moment. I have dreams of owning land, traveling, getting married and such in the next 10 years and it's hard to imagine what life is like after school -- with some actual money.

    I get pocket money each week but it goes into the bank and well, I've never used the debit card. I prefer to think of it as just in case money. And I dont worry about losing it too much, no ones going to take it and if im not gonna spend any of it... it'll come in handy when i have to deal with university or like buying a home or any of that stuff.. I can deal without so many CDs and other junk..
