Years ago, I mentioned to a colleague that there was nothing between me and the Salvation Army but...me
She looked startled. Why would I say that?
Uh, because it was true. No family money on either side, big student loans, little kids, Mrs sutton earning potential very limited. I'd been working since age 16 (age 12 if you count a paper route) with highest pre-MD wage being $7.50 hr, unskilled construction
Later I reflected. My colleague: daddy a successful East Coast specialty MD, sibs and in-laws all professionals, spouse a cardiologist.
She had never looked down and seen a void. She had no idea how catastrophic a missed paycheck could be.
