[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your daughter is correct. There is no point to an elite college.... Unless your intention is to have rich friends. The point to life is to be a good person, have good friends, be kind to strangers, give back to your community and (hopefully) have a close family. A surgeon from Penn is no happier than a plumber, if you can afford a house, food, have close friends. Once you have a certain amount of money, happiness does not increase with more money and eventually declines.[/quote] dcum's love to laud plumbers and blue collar trades without actually being blue collar themselves. there's a reason why blue collar moms and dads also push their kids to college. blue collar people (god bless them) pay with their bodies at age 50+.
