[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very frankly we make more than twice the HHI you do and have half the mortgage. I don’t say it to brag. It’s just that I agree it would be tough in your financial situation. A shocking number of families are really relying on grandparents to make it work. [/quote] NP. Unfortunately we are the same, and in an area with lower tuition. Our school is riddled with grandparents with strong opinions and criticism. Which was strange to me until I realize they are paying tuition, making donations AND making donations in their adult children’s names. So in my experience, larger salary, smaller house or mortgage, and really rich parents is the answer. PS you will almost never encounter other parents who are upfront about who is paying their kids’ tuition. I sit quietly with a friendly expression on my face at our schools annual grandparents’ day and those grandparents tell me everything![/quote]
