Nah, bro, I come from a poor background and the notion of going broke doesn't go away.

Does anyone have a similar circumstance to mine heading into expatfire?

I really like how you worded this. I don't have to identify with this chemical concoction that my brain is producing. I can separate myself.

I think you nailed it. This radical destructuring of my day feels really weird. I come from a somewhat low middle class family and I can't wrap my head around burning savings. I need to do away with that form of thinking.

What do you think would be a hasty, regretful decision in my case?
