[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If #2 had been living the way #1 has been living all along, #2 sure as hell would consider it a sacrifice![/quote] Exactly! If you live below your means and actually save, you could easily afford to send your kids to any college. We specifically did not choose private school and take meager vacations because we know we need to save for college. I'm sure all our NW DC friends think we are poor living outside the beltway in an average home and not going to Aspen every year. [/quote] I have to laugh. Our neighbors, who have a mountain home and in which family the wife has SAH for 15 years, were shocked to learn that V Tech runs 22K a year, UVA 27 and W&M 32K. WTH did they think that in our family, we have one house and two incomes? Not surprisingly, with their oldest child a junior this year, Mom went back to work making $30K a year in retail. Talk about burying your head in the sand.[/quote]
