[quote=Anonymous]No. I've explained my reasoning multiple times on DCUM, but basically it boils down to private school not offering the best quality:price ratio before college. That being said, you do pay for your child's public education - in that the best schools are in the best neighborhoods, which have expensive real estate. But at the end of your kid's K-12, you still have your house, and it will have turned into a solid investment, since everyone wants to buy into the good school district. If you pay for private instead, the money is gone. We moved to be inbounds to the best school district that also worked for our commutes. We were house poor for a while, but now our investment has paid off. If you can't move because you have a great mortgage, and your public school is crap... then that might be the only time when temporary private schooling might help you out. [/quote]
