The Value Of A Dollar OR SPOILED BRATS


Most working class parents dream of winning the jackpot, but what if you did? Would you be caught up in the life you have always dreamed of, and forget the path you were once on?

My kids do not seem to understand the value of a dollar just yet, they are still young and have been blessed with a very decent lifestyle. They are not aware of the balancing act my wife and I go through to provide for them, and they should not be, but they should still understand the value of a dollar. Right now they think the bank card is a never ending source of money, they say "Dad can I have this or that", not understanding price or priority. When I try to explain this they say " Just use your card" lol. You have to love the innocence children have, I have faith, I know they will learn. Even if I were to hit that ever so elusive lottery, I refuse to raise the next generation of spoiled rich brats. I will always provide the opportunity to attend the best school, a roof over their heads, food to eat, clothes on their backs, and my guidance. But, you can only learn the value of things when you have worked to attain it.

This is just my truth, what is yours?
