[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the heck is a donut hole family? Where do these terms come from?! [/quote] Rich people pretending to be poor and expecting entitlements. [/quote] It is a term used in many contexts to describe people who earn too much to qualify for a program (medicare drug coverage) but don't earn enough to actually pay for the product themselves. This isn't a new term. It is relatively new to apply it to college attendance. It is only recently that people began to think they were somehow entitled to an expensive elite education. But different people save different amounts because circumstances and preferences differ. Then they get all bent out of shape when a poor kid gets a large amount of financial aid.[/quote]
