[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a great public school and our kids don’t have any special needs They’re doing well in school and we’re saving a huge amount of money. We’ll definitely be able to send them to whatever college and grad school they want. Plus probably give them down payment money. Why fix what isn’t broke?[/quote] We can do that and private. But, I agree, it’s better to stay public if college savings are impacted.[/quote] So can we. We make around 850k and don’t have any debt. But again, it just seems OTT for what they charge. We have GS 10 schools, kids are doing well, smallish class sizes (under 24) and they have highly involved, educated patents at home. Lots of books, games, limited tv and screens, etc. We take the money we’d spend on that and splurge on travel. We easily spend 60-70k and don’t feel guilty because of where we save in our areas of the budget. Just seems like a waste of $$$ to us.[/quote]
