Handling money, family style

This is interesting -- I've been hearing some discussion lately about how folks handle money. Maybe it's 'cause there's just not enough of it to go around for most people these days.

According to this article, it's learned behavior, and often passed through the generations.

This makes sense. My father is, well, he calls it "thrifty." Mom sometimes calls it something else, but this is not the forum for that. I seem to have inherited Dad's attitude toward money.
