[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We opted to keep DS in an independent school K-12 although we had to make some financial (investment) sacrifices to do it. He emerged with an amazing education, which directly fed him into a top college, where he's doing really, really well. In a couple of years he'll have multiple job offers around the $100,000 mark ... and then he can buy his own property and take his own vacations, if he wants. We gave him the "present" of an education that was superior to that in the public schools in our affluent, high achieving zip code. We thought that was a better lifelong gift than a couple of safaris. [/quote] You didn’t give him the gift of humility. It’s easy to buy your way toward certain things. Also, how do you know he will have “multiple job offers” several years from now?! Lol. [/quote]
