My parents were  quite wealthy.  As a child they provided me with food, clothing, shelter and love.  Higher education, transportation,  clothing and lodging was on me as an adult they still gave me love.  I started working at age 15 and joined the Canadian Forces at age 17.   I wanted a university degree so I saved and I paid for it.  My formative years were different than most,  but had they been easier I may have not developed the strength to succeed as I did in life.
