An Epiphany on Money Management (PLEASE READ!!!)

I work part-time as a maintenance worker and get paid $7.60 an hour. I am married and have a five year old son and a new baby has just arrived. Not my dream life, if you can imagine. We somehow seems to manage to make ends meet, we try to live within our means and not over spend. One day I was working on the job cleaning the restroom and was quietly thinking about my situation. All of a sudden, this unique thought came to me (from above I'm sure) it's not how much money you make that makes the difference, it's what you do with the money you do make that makes the difference. I thought that was such a profound idea that came to me. Let me put it another way, the only difference between Donald Trumph and myself is, that Donald Trumph has more notes than me. Notes,' what does notes have to do with this? your asking yourself. Look on the front of your dollar bill, it clearly states; "THIS NOTE IS LEGAL TENDER FOR ALL DEBTS, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE" So you see, the mind set of wealth and prosperity is sub-concious deep. With hardly anything of value in the physical world I am wealthy beyond measure in the sub-concious of my mind. A practical observation exercise: Gas attendant (A) earns $7 an hour and occasionally buys his lunch at the nearby Qwik-Mart, his lunch usuall does not cost more than $5-$6 a week with some change to spare.
At the same gas station, gas attendant (B) also earns $7 an hour and he buys his lunch at the same Qwik-Mart and more often than gas attendant (A). Usually attendant (B) lunch cost about $8-$9 per day. Question: which attendant will have some money left over at the end of the month? Actually there is no right or wrong answer only common sense. In my humble opinion.
Open for discussion.
