[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that you know I am on financial aid perhaps you can opine on what expenses are reasonable and which are not.  Should i buy new clothes or only second hand?  Should i own a car or only take public transportation.  I work 9-6pm.  Am i working enough to justify the fa?  my sons sneakers are too small do i get him new ones.  i own a house.  should i sell it and rent - do i have a right to own?  I had lunch at pan era bread yesterday.  Too much?  I have two kids.  One too many?  A little advice for those that are covering my fa would be welcome.  The fa forms should specify what expenses i can incur and which i can not.[/quote]

I am a previous poster and I fully support financial aid! I think most people receiving it are deserving of it. I just think that tuition should be paid in full first then whatever is left over should go towards vacations, etc… Just my opinion, as that what we do and we struggle but I know that we are paying our fair share and that is the cost of attending such great and expensive schools. I don't think people living in a $900,000 home should receive financial aid - regardless of their net or whatnot. Sends the wrong message.[/quote]
