[quote=Anonymous][b][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those getting in to HYP now are getting in for reasons that most companies do not care about like DEI or community service. A HYP graduate doesn't exactly translate well in to truly wealthy career success. They might make great professors, doctors, or lawyers. I know a few good social workers.[/quote]

Keep being you DCUM.

Only on DCUM are doctors and lawyers not considered wealthy despite making 250-600k per year each and are usually in dual-income households thus 500-1.2mil HHI. Even professors at top schools, which heavily prefer ivy and the like, make 200-300k which is not poor.

Many top-1% smarts students, who are highly concentrated at the ivies/JHU/MIT/Stanford, want to be a doctor or lawyer or professor or other job requiring phD. They choose for the intellectual challenge of the job and/or the calling. They want a job that requires smarts. They know they will make plenty and are not solely concerned with money over all else.

Plus since when does one evaluate wealth based on the size of the house? The smartest rich people do not need to put it on display in a house, [b]they would rather have a great but reasonable house (1-1.8mil in DMV not 3 mil)[/b] and have enough for private K-12 and private college, plus save for retirement.

Please show me a "1M great but reasonable house" in the 22101 zip code.  [/quote]
