Where We Are Today is because of Choices Irrespective of whether we grew up rich or poor or some where in between we are all in our present state of living because of choices that we have made in the past. We made a choice of a spouse, to smoke or not smoke, to drink or not drink, to save/invest/ or to spend, I am very fortunate to have made many more correct decisions during my life time than poor ones. I maintain that even in the present world in which we live, the unemployed, homeless, the incarcerated,poverty stricken all had choices to make and that their present state is possibly due to choices that they made or didn't make.
In some cases, sure. In other cases not. And everyone makes bad choices. You made plenty. You just got lucky.
