[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m gonna chime in here and just say this is all ridiculous. I know so many private school grads from this area who are either under employed or unemployed, married to a high-earner. Lovely humans, but when looking at the ROI on their educations… was the tuition spent worth it? Most of these high-earners are the women/wives also. What is your desired outcome from private? If it’s to have a child who is a high earning professional I hate to break it to you, but most of that comes from DRIVE. And if your kid doesn’t have the drive, as many of these snowflake children don’t, they can only go so far. [/quote] I often wonder why does the rich house wife send their kids to fancy school, especially their daughters? [b]To become another rich fancy housewife?[/b] What is the whole points of their lives ?[/quote] It's mostly to ensure that prominent, wealthy families remain interconnected. Keeps the business within the family. You'd be shocked at the number of very wealthy HYP legacies who are married and out of the work force permanently by the age of 30 after marrying an older man. $1M of lifetime tuition from half-day Montessori to graduating Harvard.....but does it matter when your family (and DH's family) has 9-figure net worth and a ranch that rivals the size of Rhode Island?[/quote]
