I’d say I’m proud that my family and I own a house rather than rent, but what type of house and how large it is a bunch of bs. The aspect that when we had a 2nd kid everyone around us just sort of assumed that we’d either sell it and buy a larger one or remodel to accommodate another 7 lb 20 inch long person really blew me away.
I think I’d add that Car Proud is BS too in my opinion. I noticed a few people salivating over an Aston Martin in the parking lot the other day and felt sorry for them. In my opinion, everyone should get a valet job at a nice restaurant/hotel like I did when they are younger to get the chance to drive a few fancy cars and realize for themselves that they start, move and turn pretty much the same. Some might look good or go fast, but they all do the same thing as far as getting one from point a to point b a bit quicker than walking or running.
