[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The wealthy connected kids, not even a question. I grew up in a lower middle to middle class suburb with lots of very bright kids with tons of potential. Most could've gone to upper tier colleges if they really tried, but didn't end up on that pathway for whatever reasons, likely because it wasn't a priority for them. The ones who did have academic talent and went to Ivy Leagues and top tier colleges are working nice jobs at respectable organizations or brand name companies, but nothing too crazy. They've landed in the same position or lower than lazy rich kids with good connections. [/quote] 500k is really not that much. I absolutely agree that rich well connected parents like kushners, Trump, bush, Kennedy, of course. We have a seven figure income and decently connected meaning we know people to get our kid an internship or an interview. We are not buying a building to get our kid off the wait list at Wharton.[/quote]
