Have you ever worry about money? I bet everybody does at some points in life… I am a bit concerned about my financial status now. Not that I’m in deep financial shit, but now that I’m expecting, my priorities in life have changed. Been doing some calculating and financial planning (not all done yet tho) and realized it can really take a heavy toll in the pocket to safeguard baby’s future, providing the best for baby and at the same time still have a comfortable life.
Sometimes I really do envy those who are well-off and wonder if I’ll ever make that 5 figures every month end. But really I think one can make the best of what one’s has and be contend and happy. I also believe money can’t buy happiness, not in my world at least.
I’ll leave you with a “Rothism” from Van Halen (which my friend E quoted to me the other day :)
"Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a yacht big enough to pull up right alongside it."
What do you think?

I totally understand where you're coming from... and I don't even have a kid on the way!
The one thing that a lack-of-money does help, though, is it forces you to focus more on deriving happiness from ideas, simple events, friendship, etc. It also helps keep your apartment from being cluttered :)
