My parents grew up during the Great Depression & those hard times were never forgotten !! They were building their first home & had to borrow $500 from a wealthy neighbor (Banks would not loan money to worthy customers during that time) to finish building their home. They worried theirselves nearly to death until they paid it back. My Mother, a school teacher never forgot those hard times & made me feel guilty to ask for Lunch Money. She said they didn't even buy underwear until out of debt !!! Needless to say my Dad was thrifty buying ammo !!!!
