Broke again!
"I bought all 5 of my kids season passes to Kings Dominion, reserved a campsite for a couple of days while on vacation,put gas in the mini van, and bought some groceries. Needless to say the groceries are all gone and so is the gas. Now we're struggling all over again. Yes, the money was nice for a few days, but it doesn't last long enough to make a difference."

if you're already broke again from a vacation, maybe you should have put it into savings.

So... what you're saying "JAD" is that people should not 'live'... and at least not [try] to have a somewhat 'normal' life.. have a vacation, etc.? shall we all STAY home now and learn knitting? perhaps! The answer! yes... KNITTING... after we plow our gardens and feed the horses... that will pull our wagons.. because we're headed backwards.. aren't we?

You bought 5 season passes for your kids, went on vacation, but you're struggling....again?!!?! If you were struggling before, maybe you should have been smarter with your money.....or be thankful you were able to do these things for your family without spending money you did not have.
People these days! Whaa whaa whaa!!!
What would you have done if you didn't get this money?
Probably more miserable, heh?
Just say "thanks".
