[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in upper NW and planned on sending our kid to public school all the way through, but recently switched over to a $20K private for a specific curriculum not available in the public. We make about $350K with only one child, but still feel the pinch. We do some discretionary spending--we like to travel abroad, take ski vacations, etc., so this would be tough on a lower salary while paying for private. YMMV.[/quote] Yeah, I don't consider a lifestyle with travel abroad and ski vacations to be a "pinch." Those are expensive lifestyle choices.[/quote] PP here. Not complaining much—even with six figures in college/med school loans, we feel fortunate. Just chimed in to say that we planned on public, so even on our salary, recent switch to private is noticeable to our pocketbooks. There is no way we could afford a 40K school given our mortgage, retirement savings, etc. we’d have to make a drastic lifestyle change.[/quote]
