Do you behave like a poor person?
| Rachel Knight, 31, has countless stories about money being tight when she was growing up. There was the time when she was 6 years old and her parents couldn't afford to take her younger sister to the doctor. |
|
Now Knight, a wife and mother, has a good job, and, in theory, is living the American dream. Still, though her household income is about $140K per year, neither she nor her husband has any savings. And every month, the minimum payments on their credit cards grow closer to exceeding the cost of their mortgage. She knows she's headed for financial disaster, yet she continues to hit the spa and download shopping apps from her favorite stores. |
