If he indulges in his penchant for gifting HIS favorite cause, I send equal amounts to my struggling brother. At the time, I was working part time for about 8 hours a weekend, earning minimum wage. He suspected something was wrong when he didn’t see any money coming out of my part time job.

When my brother and I were growing up, our parents didn’t have much discretionary income. Our mom stayed home to raise us kids; she went to work part-time in the local school system after both my brother and I were in school. How did you get interested in saving money?

We also grow a large garden & lots of flowers, fruit trees & a 100-year-old grapevine. Now-I’m a single parent who works part-time, cares for my elder mother, homeschools & runs a farm. We have sheep, an old goat, chickens, guineas, dogs & cats. Sports/extracurriculars were funded by Mom cleaning houses/church.
