      I absolutely love that you play trombone. I have played trombone for the past 15 years. Unfortunately, i was in a car accident, so i can no longer play. It is so good to see a fellow trombonist who loves music so much. It may not be a main character instrument with parts written for it, but it is important. I was in a trombone choir for many years. I miss it so much. Have you thought to play in a community band in your city? It is a great way to keep that music alive and play music with a ton of great people! Never stop playing!

    I’m realizing that as long as people are physically able to live as if they aren’t poor, they don’t feel poor and they don’t see the severity of the situation. She’d feel poor if she was under a bridge and counting pennies for lunch, but she physically can pull out a card and fly to Puerto Rico and she can eat at restaurants and live in a air conditioned home. She doesn’t feel poor, so she’s not acting like she is. But she’s mathematically much poorer than the homeless guy under the bridge.

      My 38 year old daughter is disabled but is able to work part-time to supplement her disability check. (She caught an unknown virus when she was 2 that wrecked her immune system) She lives on $1,400 every month and feels bad about her position in life BUT she has no debt. In reality, that's a lot better than her friends who are able bodied and working full-time and drowning in debt. Zero net wort is better than negative net worth. When I explained that to her, she felt so much better about herself. (I bought a small house for her to live in and I don't charge her rent. She pays the utilities. I paid cash for the house so no mortgage.)

      @@maxhalley4373 Thank you. It took a long time to finish college because of her disability. When she got her first job in banking, she ran out and bought a new car. It got repossessed when she got sick again. She learned that lesson the hard way. We are now looking for a vehicle that will get her from A to B. The Rendezvous I bought her several years ago finally bit the dust. For now, we share my 09 Rav4. I drive it Mon morning through Fri afternoon and she drives it on the weekends when she works. She always works holidays. I never work holidays. It's not convenient but doable while we look for something.

The reason you give 10 percent is to teach you about giving. You can't be all work and save. Honestly, all religions, if you follow it correctly, you don't end up poor. It promotes working together. Not over spend and help others. This key things help families grow.

    If this girl reads this comment- I’m an auto tech and don’t sell your car and mess your finances up even more. Your honda is just as reliable as a Toyota, one of the best cars on the market. Fix the car and drive until the recall. There’s very little signs of a “bad fuel pump”. Usually when it’s bad, the car won’t turn on. If the car turns on then it’s working and driveable. I think you’re convincing yourself you’re in a deeper hole than you actually are (car-wise).

      After all choices are *not* made through words, but the result of deliberate action (or inaction).
      E.g.: If somebody chooses to have intercourse - especially without contraception, they are deliberately accepting the risk and the potential consequences arising from that risk.
      If the consequence happens to be pregnancy, then it was the direct result of that person's deliberate action.
      It was their choice for that pregnancy (to be possible) to happen, no matter how often they used their words to insist that they don't want kids.
      Note: I'm not using this example to make a moral point about that particular choice or to suggest any particular way to handle the consequences.
      It's just an example of how words are shallow and meaningless, it's your actions that define your choices.
