[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents did this. HHI of 300k in the early 2000s and didn’t save a penny. And wouldn’t co-sign for private loans. Found out when I’d already gotten in to my dream school. [/quote]

Where did you end up?  I’m sorry, similar story here.  Can’t shake the resentment, years later.[/quote]
NP here, but this is similar to my story. I was accepted to Brown, ended up going to to UMD, which had awarded me a full scholarship. I have a normal MC life now, so it’s not like UMD plunged me into a life of poverty, but I’m bitter that my parents were so irresponsible and didn’t prioritize my education over designer clothing, vacations, and tithing to our church. [/quote]

Wow.  Entitled much?

You’re angry that your parents have to the church??

I also attempted a state school on a full ride instead of paying for a more ‘prestigious’ college.  It worked out fine.  [/quote]

Well, if the parents are rich then the OP has a right to be a bit upset that they didn't save for college.  I'd never take fancy vacations or wear designer clothing (that I paid full price for) while I wasn't already saving for my kiddos college.  You wont get any aide with that income level, so it is a bit upsetting to see parents not attempting to save when they Easily could have (and it sounds like it would have been easy)

You would be shocked.  Some moms "need" that purse, yet, also "need" their kid to be an athlete. So unfair (to their own child), truly. [/quote]
