[quote=Anonymous]Flashy purses and flashy cars (and even fancy vacations) aren't that expensive compared to $40K/year/kid for 13 years. Maybe these flashy parents just don't have enough money for that much tuition without the payments being uncomfortable, but have enough to afford other luxuries in life. There's a pretty wide range of wealth to accommodate the material luxuries in life, but spending over $400K/child for private school--when public schools are very good--requires either so much wealth that that sum of money doesn't fundamentally change a family's lifestyle, or the family is deeply committed to private education for some other reason.[/quote]
