[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in an expensive part of Bethesda. My single mom made about a school teacher's salary. We had everything we needed, and lots of extras, but I felt so poor. It really sucked. Only when I went away to college in a working class town did I get any real perspective on the level of wealth and privilege I'd been surrounded by. OP, not saying what will be best for your family, but my tactic has been to retreat to the relatively less affluent PG County, where my kids will be in the wealthier half of the group at school or in the neighborhood. This feels right to us. There is a lot more diversity. We can choose to go down to one income if we want. No worries about keeping up with the Joneses. Feels like more breathing room.[/quote]
