kissme56 NewbieI was born in America. After a while, I learned English very well but my parents wanted to move back to their home, Japan. I was so sad that I had to leave my friends that I litterly tried to hide in our house on moving day. My friends, lets just call them Madison and Courtney still contact me on Skype. I was born lucky, because I hear alot of kids that are poor and can't afford one dime of food or water. I wouldn't say I am rich, but I would say that my sister and I are spoiled because we have alot of stuff and we can go anywhere and go on vacations and live the good life because my parents are still together, working with jobs they like. I feel bad for being in a high middle class family. I feel bad for owning an Xbox 360, Xbox One, Nintendo Wii U, Playstation, Gamecubes, and 2 Nintendo DSI's. I feel bad for being... not poor.

What I'd do is just give back, you know...like you see a beggar on the street, give some money.Instead of throwing away/selling things you don't want give them away or put them in good will.Also appreciate what you have, y'know.Nothing wrong with having things, its bad when you have so much yet you take it for granted.
I know money is important in life, but in the end material things don't really matter.I wasn't the richest kid growing up and hell I still had a blast. -
Don't feel bad about it. The above post explains it well. Sharing is always good, and you can actually do it.
Since you were merely born into the family, you have no control over it. But let me just say that if they're prosperous through genuine work, and they simply get paid a lot, that's not bad. What is bad is if they're, say, bosses exploiting workers or if they are landlords or something. Which it doesn't sound like they are. (If they are, you should do everything you can to sabotage them.) -
Money and possessions mean nothing. There are happy people who scrape by paycheck to paycheck and miserable people who are never at a loss for money. True happiness is being thankful for what you have.

Yeah, like my uncle who I rarely see is pretty high up there in the income brackets, but has no idea how to use his money, and basically sells himself to get there.
In contrast, the majority of my family are trailer-house-dwelling, minimum-wage-at-best earning, only get food once a month type, and yet we actually know what to do with money when we get it, and thus are not miserable.
It's all about how you use it, really. Not the amount you have.
