I’ve heard this from three different families in my kid’s 2nd grade class. And these are young parents in their 30s, not young moms with some old dude on his second set of kids.
Pretty crazy. The money in this area is no joke. -$600K HHI in W2 income |

So is the lack of money. I guess they’re on the affluent side of the K shaped economy. |

So you're rich and surprised to be living among possibly richer people? I haven't met any retired parents in their 30s in my kid's school!

+1. Reminds me of my SIL. Her family took a very expensive vacation and she was SHOCKED that some kids in her kids class had already been there. How dare they be as affluent as she was! |

| You’re not retired with elementary school aged kids. You’re a stay at home parent. |

We have a parent like that. He's 45. Had a business early on and it was survival and he sold it and invested $. |
