This is a great article. I found it while I was searching for material to do a presentation on Personal Finances for my club. I can truly say that my upbringing totally influenced the way I manage my finances and how I have to analyze every aspect of my life in a monetary way. I live in Honduras and consider myself middle class. When I was young my family always struggled with debt. Now, my brothers and I work so we took a load off my parents but still the money situation hasn´t changed much.(Damn inflation!!) Out of the three children, I´m the most money conscious and the youngest. My older brother certainly has no financial literary and has so much trouble controlling his spending habits. I usually end up helping him and my other brother. My ultimate goal is to have my own business, this way I can be in control of my money and my time. keep up the good work! Silvia. Hi Laurie.

What really gets me is how a brother and sister can grow up in the exact same household with the exact same parents, and have totally different spending habits and money personalities! My sister spends, spends, spends....and I have a hard time buying a Starbucks latte. I'll send this article to her, she'll get a kick out of it. Thanks, S. Hi Laurie,

Mjosla, that's so great to hear how financial bankruptcy changed your life! Wow....who would've thought that something so potentially devastating could be so rewarding. I bet it's forever changed how you handle money and your personal finances -- for the better. That's great!

I lately went bankrupt, it was tough and scary but it unexpectedly released me from the bad relationship I had with money and bad management of my finances. It forced me to link it with my parents having to struggle to money or having rows which were always money-related. I found security with a husband who took over completely all money-related matters but it gave him control of my life and I think it stopped me from becoming an adult. Once I divorced from my husband I made management mistakes, went into debts that led to bankruptcy but I pulled through on my own, it made me grow and made me overcome something which had been weighing on me for so many years. It is very rewarding. Thanks for bringing up the link with childhood.

Laurie, I've just discovered your articles by accident and find your thoughts very interesting. I've been terrible with money throughout my life, and often regret past decisions when dealing with and thinking of financial situations. I'm beginning to realize the great impact on my life-financially and otherwise-the role that family upbringing has played. Thanks for your thoughts and advise. Chris Interesting article.
