[quote=Anonymous]I live in the Palisades and this describes so many families! If you include families that received significant $$ for down payments and families who have their kids' private school paid for my grandparents, it feels like a very large % of families (to me). For all of you who do not get this help -- please don't jump on me. I didn't say ALL, but it is a lot more than I think people recognize. I have also witnessed these families look down on living in places in MD & VA (again, not all!), and who seem to completely miss the irony that they would never be able to afford this neighborhood otherwise. OP, people are jumping on you for feeling jealous because well, (1) it's easy and putting someone down makes a lot of people feel better for a moment and (2) many wealthy people are very, very touchy about acknowledging the help they've received. But I agree with you--- transparency here is helpful.[/quote]
