[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the biggest measure of showing off wealth or hiding it is your house. We've always preferred to be millionaires in a middle class neighborhood. No one is showing off for anyone. And people are a lot nicer, in my experience. [/quote] I feel like it is education. The 130k we will fairly easily spend on college and private school tuition this year is more than four times our mortgage and by far our largest expense. I feel like I live a pretty average existence as far as homes/cars etc., and can relate to my friends who are still in the midwest (where I grew up), until we start talking about college/schools. That is where I fall silent, and underplay wealth. They have no idea how much a private school tuition costs in the DC-area. [/quote]
