[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my DH and i bring in $350k per year. we have 2 kids (4yo and 5yo) and we wanted to send them to private school in DC. i just looked at private schools such as Sidwell and i was shocked when realized that tuition is 35k. does any one here in DCU forum have similar income and sends 2 kids to top private. if yes how do you do manage to find 35K per kid in your budget? i am assuming financial aid is not available to people with 350k income.

What do you think is going to happen to your income over the next 15 years?   We started one in private over 10 years ago when we made a combined $180k.  Since then we've added two more kids to private but our income went way up.   Now DH is past his peak earnings years and income is starting to slowly slide down.  And, we still have college for three (we saved about 3/4 of what we need for college so we are in pretty good shape).  I'm guess I'm saying that 14 years of private school, plus 4 or more years of college is a lot of private education even if you are relatively rich.   I wish we had done public for elementary![/quote]
