[quote=Anonymous]I'd also like to reply to the OP regarding this quote: "my lack of inclusion in the higher echelon of society effects my daughter's opportunities." You say that you and your husband come from working class families and so you don't know how to navigate the system. You may find some comfort (or not) in the fact that there is really no system. Some people with money have financial planners who help them figure out how to invest, pay down debt, etc., but there are no secrets out there to how to live well in Washington that the upper class shares among themselves. There are great public schools all over the place -- NW DC, Montgomery County, Fairfax County, etc. -- or you can live wherever you want and spend a couple thousand a month for private school (remember, by then you won't be paying a nanny anymore). School districts put an astonishing amount of data online about test scores, class sizes, etc. so all that information is available. It's true that your student loan debt is quite large, but it sounds like the salaries you have been able to earn with those degrees are worth it.[/quote]
