14. I'm okay with not pretending to be rich, when I'm poor. I don't NEED to walk in the rich door.

I am confident and secure enough in my own worth, I guess, to walk in any door. It's not like I have to take out their trash.

I'm living in upscale digs for a fraction of the cost. I know a good deal when I hear it.

Maybe you've never been really poor like I have been. Or maybe you need to work on your self-esteem, so you don't need others to think you have more money than you do. It is okay to be a low income renter. It's also okay to drive an old car instead of a new one, to have a Honda Fit instead of a BMW.
