[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of Ivy League students come from relatively wealthy families, which means they’re able to take on meaningful work with lower salaries. Or they’ve learned that money isn’t the only measure of success![/quote] Brown alumna here and ITA. I was there 20+ years ago and the amount of $ people had was obscene. A regular, working class DCUM poster from a MC family cannot grasp this idea. I know "regular" people (not Middle Eastern royalty, Tisch fortunes) that have not worked in major money-making roles for at least 3 generations. Our friend's parents owned a neighborhood restaurant, my friend/classmate works in public health, and she bought her daughter a 2.6MM starter home in LA after graduation. My classmate's wedding was at her 50MM summer "house" in East Hampton. I said it before, but for social mobility, the best school is CalTech. Don't go to an Ivy undergrad if you are poor and want to make $. [/quote]
