I feel this. I suspect my husband would say we’re upper class, but I grew up poor. I cringe at the thought of spending $100 on unnecessary things. Groceries? Routinely over $100. Whatever. Utility bill in the summer in the hundreds? Yeah, it’s hot, and I like my AC.  Go out and drop $50 on that video game I want that I’ve been waiting for? ...No. That’s excessive.
