Both upper middle class MS upbringings.
Not new money or trash with cash.
Just your everyday solid , hard-working , church going , law-abiding, straight , nuclear family that tried to acquire land and save $ throughout the generations. You know. Domestic terrorists that are the current bane of the United States per the media.

If I ever get married, it won't be to a woman who comes from money. In my experience, women who come from money are incredibly entitled and I don't want any part of that. The poorer, the better. I don't need their money.

My wife's family were blue collar hippies. Her parents are gone now. They didn't end up w many assets other than a house. We occassionally helped them with bills. My wife got away from that and does well w two degrees.
My fam was blue collar ex-military. My parents have also passed, had a beautiful Florida home. But my siblings (two sisters) weren't/aren't especially ambitious, and both dropped out of high school to run off with boys.
To look at our families now, my family / siblings are in much better shape than my wife's. But none of them (including our parents) have the success and drive that my wife and I have.

At one point my wife quadrupled my pay and I wasn’t making bad money 10 to 12 years ago
