My parents born during this era (Dad 1914, mom 1917 & my husband 1928 so gonna’ toss him in this era.) Mom & dad grew up on farms in West TX. We’d hear stories growing up from our dad, mostly, of how they worked the fields & walked miles to school in snow, lived on biscuits & gravy for years, etc. 😆 Dad started working on big ranches when he turned 17 & did so with some of his brothers & sisters (sisters were cooks on these ranches.) Eventually dad got drafted during WWII, praise God he made it home from war in Germany & after he returned / married mom & moved to FtWorth where he found a decent job & raised us. / My husband, born in 1928, was 23 yrs older than me. 30 yrs NAVY RETIRED MCPO & he was a pilot. Flying 🚁 was his passion but he flew prop planes as well. (He started out in blimps!!) He was 1 of Arthur Godfrey’s flight instructor’s. Married hubby in Corpus Christi, eventually moved to a farm in KY. Hubby had SO MANY stories he shared. He passed few yrs back at great age of 92. Now I’m back in TX with my family. Great series, Dawn. Hope to read some other comments. 👍❤️🇺🇸
I love those stories
I learned not to be wasteful from my grandmother that was born in 1910. That’s why I have a 37 year old Maytag washer and dryer set. I won’t toss anything that still works, lol.
My dad was a twin. His twin brother had to go into World War II, but Dad was not drafted because his father was deceased and he had to stay home with his mother to provide for her, That's the way it was back then, The army wouldn't leave a widow alone. Thankfully, his twin was not injured or killed in the war, but came home healthy.
My grand parents were born in 1912 and 1918. I’m so glad I was able to sit down with them and ask them about the Great Depression and ww2. They were hard workers and I never heard them whine and complain
So true
My Dad was born in 1895. Born on a farm also. Served in world war 1. They always went to a farm to pick up fresh eggs. He would take orders from the neighbors and deliver them when we got home.
My dad was born in 1923 and survived the Depression and was a combat Marine during WWII. He expected everyone to be honorable, hard working and to help your fellow man.
my parents were born in this time frame, they werent just frugal, they were poor, my dad worked before and after school at a grocery store, he was 8 years old, his mom a widow with 6 children, they all worked, didn't come home till 11pm, began their day at 5am, my mom and her siblings sewed "piece work" at home in the evenings, basically sewing seams on their manual singer sewing machine. depression/work hardships but they never gave up. they are the greatest generation.
Yes , I remember hearing stories on how that generation pulled together to help out during the War. And like you said they volunteered.
My dad was born in 1908. He was hit by a train when he was 14. He was not fit for military service with one leg. He worked as an electrician in steel plant climbing ladders and working on high platforms until he died. A.work ethic and sense of responsibility were the things I associate with the greatest generation. My mom was much younger than my dad being born in 1925 she was a teen- young adult during WW2. She went to nurses training right out if high school to work in the hospital for injured returned soldiers.
My grandpa was born in January of 1923, in Belfast, northern ireland.raised in Dublin.
My great grandfather actually helped build the RMS Titanic
Awesome!!!!! Now there’s some history!!👍
Yes. Currently we are in high inflation, food prices, and high housing prices. But people who complain, complain, complain about finances need to take a page from the 30s snd 40s to see how people coped with much worse financial issues during the depression and during and after WW.
People need to look at their spending and look for ways to cut costs. Too much is spent on wants not needs in many cases. That is why I watch several frugal youtubers for ideas. As a retired couple we have to be more mindful of what we have to spend.
Love your video.❤
Thank you much
I'm all for saving money, especially on food and household items. One thing I don't understand is why some of the younger generation is mad at the older generations. They can learn so much from them like how to save on almost everything. I get ideas from any generation and I'm open minded enough to listen instead of reacting negatively. Have A Beautiful Week Everyone ❤✌️
My favorite generations are the greatest and the silent generation.They were full of wisdom and could keep a marriage together. I was fortunate enough to know my grandparents and most of my great grandparents..
My parents were born in 1924 and 1925. I miss my parents, terribly!
I completely understand how you feel! Dad was born in 1923 and Mom in 1926 and I miss them a great deal, but I know they have moved on with their lives in realms of beauty, light, and harmony. Now if we could just make heaven on earth....!
I know they were wonderful people
My parents were both born in that generation. They were very frugal. Always able to help and make do with what they had. I miss them so very much xx
I understand
My dad was born in 1926. He grew up on a farm and was the second oldest of 13 kids. He grew up very poor but made good money years later after raising 6 kids. They still lived frugally. After my parents passed, clearing out their house, I found so many empty food containers and washed foil etc. You would never think they had money. But our family learned from all that.
My Father is from a family of 9 kids
My grandparents were born in 1902 and 1904. My dad was born in 1939, #5 of 7 kids. They owned a dairy farm in southern Ohio on the Indiana/Ohio line. I was an adult when my grandparents passed. So I was able to learn from their frugal living and my dad's carrying on of those values. I have been living this way for many years. However there is always more to learn. I just found your channel. And have already learned new things. Especially live your life, your way and don't worry about what society says about it.
My parents were born in 1922 and 1924, my mom talked about the depression, and mentioned that they made, dish towels and clothes out of flour sacks, I am so thankful for what I have, because back then, they had it very hard, drinking well water, which was not so bad, went to country school, and remember the neighbor would sometimes take us home, as it was a few miles to go.
My grandmother was born in 1926. She’s the most resourceful person I know! She’ll be 98 in September. Her memory is still in tack. ❤
That’s awesome! Wishing continued good health to your grandmother!! ❤️
How wonderful
My mother wasn't from that generation but learned frugality from her parents and grandparents. My grandmother cooked on a woodburning stove. She got an electric range later on but still used the woodburner during the winter. She also had a potbelly stove in the living room. It heated the entire house. My grandmother made the best fried pies! Yum! Great video! Love to all, Linda 💕
I love 🥧
I have the best book recommendation for everyone: The Fourth Turning is Here. Interesting study for the past 500 years about history and how the different generations shaped our nation.
Thank you
Love this series. I think my oldest grandparent was born in 1920. The rest were born 1930 onwards.
My grandparents were all from the Greatest Generation: Mom's parents in 1919, Dad's dad in 1922, and Dad's mom in 1928 (stretching the range some). They grew up/came of age in poverty during the Depression, Mom's parents in Boston, and Dad's parents on farms in central/north central Texas. When they had my parents, aunts, and uncles (all Boomers) they passed on those frugal habits, especially Dad's parents. Later, my dad and mom taught frugality to his millennial children, me and my siblings. I definitely still take frugality wisely, even as I earn more at work.
Great Depression Cooking with
Clara (Cannucciari). Her channel is so fun to watch. My husband bought me her cookbook for Christmas one year.
Dad was born in 1914, Mom in 1918. Responsible, hardworking people with close family ties. They sacrificed so their kids could get an education and have a better life. I really don’t know if what we had was “better,” though, just different. They made the most of what they had, and enjoyed their circle of friends and neighbors. Visiting at home was widely practiced then - having coffee and cake, getting together to play bridge or canasta, reminiscing about their childhoods and talking about everything under the sun. Nowadays it seems you can’t even express an opinion without causing offense or being immediately labeled. Definitely there was less paranoia, less tension, and more freedom of speech. I enjoyed my parents’ friends as much as my parents did and got to know many of them well. They are all gone now, God bless them. Thanks, Dawn!
My mom grew up on a farm she was o.k. My mother in law grew up in the city during in the depression.she had chickens and a small garden in the back yard. On Sunday they would have a chicken and for the whole week they would have chicken soup , pancakes with chicken gravy, etc. etc. I can’t imagine the hard times that she went through .when I married her son 55 years ago if she had a teaspoon of potatoes left she would save them she never threw a single piece of food away. When she passed she had all the same dishes etc.. what an amazing lady.❤️
That is amazing
Hello Dawn! 😊❤
Leaving a comment for the YT algorithm. Past my parents, I really don't have family info. 😞
I will adopt you
@CentsibleLivingWithMoneyMom ❤️❤️❤️
You're so sweet! I wish we were neighbors, I think we'd make great friends!
We're only 2 years apart, so we could be sisters! 💞
Greetings from Michigan. 😊
Hi Dawn (This is a reply to a comment you made a couple of days ago, I can't find it so I'm responding here.) I homestead. Yes, Cherry season is only one month long. As one gets back to the land and in touch with natural cycles (seasons), you realize many of the things you like to talk about on your channel. Yes, produce from the produce dept of the store does indeed taste like a watered-down version of that thing. Grow your own vegetables and fruits and you realize that. I never got as good at raising apples as I wanted to (I was a failure at it as a matter of fact). Nevertheless, there is nothing quite as wonderful as seeing adults practically skipping through the orchard like children as they come to pick apples in season. Bakery shops used to contact us to sell our Duck eggs to them. Duck eggs make creamier custards and richer tasting baked goods. There is a real delight that touches something deep inside when you allow certain foods to be seasonal treats. Btw, I'm not dissing being able to get what I want when I want it (thank you big agra, agriculture), and yet that does take something of the joy of that produce away - a bit like having Christmas year-round.
Great comment
And always heard stories how the women, from this era, pulled together especially in time of war to work some men’s jobs!! My mom had a job painting numbers on airplanes in 1950’s at what was known as Convair in FtWorth, TX. 🇺🇸
❤ my dad was born in 1919 and mom was born 1929. The generation may have been great, but what they lived through wasn’t. Dad was middle child of 7 and mom was the baby of 6. She lost her mom to cancer at age 12. Neither of my parents talked much about their lives before they got married. My dad was in WW2 spent 9 month in a military hospital at the end of the war. Again he wouldn’t talk about any of it.
Sounds really rough
Hey Dawn. My grandparents were born in this generation. They were my favorite people ever.
I know that this wasn't about GenXers, but I totally laughed the other day, because someone posted asking people what generation they were in and totally left out the GenX generation. One of the names for GenX is the Forgotten generation. Typical, we are always forgotten. lol
You are not forgotton
I remember when I use to visit my Papou. Means in Greek Grandfather....
He was one who lived thru that time and he predicted the Great Recession back then....and he always said we would have another one and we did back in 2008....
He was very smart for his age....he died back in fhe 80's but I will welcome him back in the greatest resurrection that will ever take place when the words of Jesus Christ will have come true found in the Bible book of John chapter 5:28,29....where we find Jesus giving us a run down of what he will do for us and them...😊😊😊
Yes ! Amen !!!
Amen!!❤
My Mom was born in 1909. Raised on a farm. She did go to school. Which was a blessing. When I was growing up she always wore a dress and apron but she was always canning something. My Mom a Dad went to farms to buy bushel baskets of fresh fruits and vegetables. She canned everything including meat (deer, squirrel, and rabbit). When I was around 15 my sister took her shopping and got her a pant suit. Shocked my when I saw her in it. After that she would wear pants and shorts around home but going out she wore her dresses.
Never locked our doors always open. The neighbors all serve as look outs watching everyones homes when they were gone.
I had to be in when the street lights came on. We lived right behind Western High school where I graduated. Have to say this -- I would tell the hall moniters, if I was late that I missed the bus. I know not nice but it was fun. Everyone have a great day and God bless. Bye for now.
Wonderful memories
❤
Three of my 4 grandparents were born in this generation.
