Do you like to spend money?

not really

I just by things when I need to, don't really feel anything about it. it's a need, not a pleasure or an enjoyment
 
Of course. I got a payout due to childhood trauma of about $60,000 NZD.. It was almost gone in a month. But me and my partner did go on an awesome holiday and went in limos, went to Hobbiton, saw Matilda the Musical, etc.
 
Like? No, not really. I grew up somewhere in between poor and middle class for about 14-15 years before my mom remarried a doctor. By then, I was already very frugal and very nervous about spending money. After the divorce, she went insane with the money she got and blew a couple hundred thou in the span of like a fucking year or less. It was awful to watch and only cemented my fear of losing money.

Is she better with money these days?
 
Infinitely. She's learned some hard lessons, which is nice, because she needed to learn them sooner rather than later.
Thats good. A couple hundred thousand would have been a good down payment on a house.

Right! Or an entire house itself back then. That was the most painful part to watch knowing where she is now still in debt and living in an apartment. I'm just glad she's okay.
