Have you ever been poor, then, you became rich? Or, the other way around; have you ever been rich, and later, you became poor?
Or, maybe, you have been pretty regular or in-between, regarding your net worth.
Let us know, if you have any financial prosperity stories to share.

We've always been in-between. There was a period when both of us were out of work and on Unemployment. Now we're relatively comfortable. Have a good weekend.

I've always been on the low side of money, I was never too rich, but been so poor
that I didn't have a thing to eat for weeks other than what I could beg for rather it be
$ or food, it I've always had to fight borrow or beg for everything in life.

Comfortable. Blessed more than we deserve. Nearing to doable debt-free status.

I have been in all three places, in succession. I started with nothing, gained some and was in the middle, and eventually gained more. Granted, it all happened for a reason. Partly that...I did not want to ever be the first two, and so I did things to ensure the last thing could actually happen.

I grew up around upper middle class people. I have been lower middle class, homeless poor, poor, and now Lower Middle class again..But happy. Have my best friend and fishing partner Roommate to help as I am on Social Security, and without Tom I would probably be homeless again. But I take things as they come. Putting what I can back for harder times.

I do not have income yielding assets , actively or pasivley. So definitely not rich. I live paycheck to paycheck .I do have some debt. The way I look at the spectrum I see myself as a lowe middle class but not poor for the moment. I am trying to improve my financial income by taking the online works and part time assignments.I have not succeeded yet to arn passively. From the online I have not made the substantial income to cover my monthly expenses. Well, I need to work well on the personal income .
