[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only chump who is paying 80k. Kid got into a top ivy. Felt bad saying no way. We can afford it but it is very tight. [/quote] If you can afford it, you have a lot more income than the person paying half that with aid (not dollar for dollar, at least two dollars for every dollar). Given that, I don’t see why it shouldn’t be worth 80K to you if it’s worth scrimping to someone with less. After all you’re the one who glibly rounds up. I’ve yet to see an actual cost of attendance be 80K and even the 70K numbers include incidentals not paid to the school.[/quote] A lot of kids have already signed leases. Plus there are plenty of donut hole families that make good money, but only in the last few years but 80k is still a huge burden.[/quote] Give me a break. If you can afford $80k/yr, you can afford it. $30k/yr is a burden to many families too. [/quote]
