#generational learning

Some things are just so ingrained into my mind, but once I examine them they're silly, useless and ridiculous.

Like, I was raised to the standards of "the dishwasher MUST be fully loaded before turned on!"

And sometimes I stand in my kitchen and get overwhelmed with the dirty dishes, because the dishwasher is already packed, but I KNOW that if I reorganized everything, there would be room for more, and then I get so stressed and angry and overwhelmed.

And it never occurred to me that I can just. Turn it on. I can run the dishwasher half full. I don't have to go through the whole overwhelming process of un- and reloading just because my dead grandpa insisted in "saving energy and water" by having it fully loaded.

This is not his dishwasher. It is mine. My dishwasher, my kitchen, my dishes. My rules.

I don't have to stick to his rules just because I learned them somewhen.

And the freedom this knowledge will give you is. I have no words for it. It's power. It's control. It's de-whelming.

Background and values probably comes into their spending too. The Ackles came from more upper middle class where they were around fancier lifestyles. Jared grew up middle class where there wasn't a lot of money but enough and Gen I think is from Old money where they try to make their wealth last. Plus Ackles values seem to be in feeling important and famous whereas the Padaleckis are more family centric and concerned with well being.

I wondered about adding that into my last post, but I wasn't sure how to word it, because I do think that's a really important factor in how people handle their finances. Parents frequently teach by example, and if money is something that has to be considered carefully, and parents model that for their kids, they're more likely to follow that lead.

But I will say, with all this talk of money, the Ackles and Padaleckis are very blessed with what they have, regardless of how each family deals with their wealth, especially when there are so many struggling out there, living paycheck to paycheck, who don't even have the opportunity to make those kinds of choices.
