[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people whine so much about college costs?? [b] Just tell your kid to go to UMD[/b] and live at home - it's really not that expensive. I know someone who is a C-level exec at one of the biggest companies in the area; they went to a mediocre state school and earn a 7-figure income. No one cares about your $80K/year private college unless you went to Harvard or Princeton. And even then, the intelligence and drive that got you into Harvard account for far more of your success than any connection or any other benefits you gained from the university itself. And I can guarantee that your average or above-average kid's life is sure as hell not going to be any better because they went to Swarthmore instead of UMD for their BA in English.[/quote] Most kids will not get into UMD.
