[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother went to an Ivy and then to medical school and my parents paid for all of it. I went to a state school and graduated in 3.5 years and my parents paid for it. Do my parents owe me the difference? No f—-ing way! I got the education I wanted and so did he and I graduated debt free which many of my friends did not. The question for OP is where did this sense of entitlement/greed come from? [/quote] THIS. I had a 5 year degree and my sister had a 4 year degree. Because I was in undergrad for 5 years and my sister for 4, to make it "fair", my parents completely bankrolled her lifestyle for a year - paid for a luxury apartment, she didn't work at all ... they paid for everything. Except she went to private school on no scholarships for a fluff degree and I went to public school on scholarships in an extremely hard major. They'd already paid more for her education, so it made NO sense. 20 years later and I'm still irritated about it. [/quote]
