>>RE: Have you ever been broke?<<

Never broke enough to starve but broke enough to lose a lot of weight. I now realize that it was a very valuable experience, both in terms of motivation and empathy our fellow man. I wish my kids could have a brief taste of life minus all the extraneous material possessions to understand how unimportant they all are. When I got my first job out of college paying the princely sum of $11,900 per year I thought I was Bill Gates.
