[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m british and I met my American husband when we were both on vacation in Spain. I would never ever advise my kid to start their career in the UK. It is so so so hard to financially get ahead there no matter how hard you work. it’s really a country to be mediocre in. I sometimes think Americans are blind to all the opportunity and wealth we have here and are really living in some fantasy about what real daily life is like in Europe. There is not a single day that goes by that I’m not grateful for the opportunity i’ve had in the US and the incredible education my kids get here. [/quote]
This, in a nutshell, is why an American throwing away lottery ticket opportunities at Stanford for Harry Potter cosplay — where one will be treated like a Muggle, before and after graduation — is a huge, huge mistake.[/quote]

Oh my….who are you? Are you really complaining that this person selected Oxford over Stanford? Really? [/quote]

Having attended one of these, I can day that neither of them are a “lottery ticket”. They are an opportunity for growth and learning, and they are what you make of them. And after graduating, you still need to chart your own path through this world.[/quote]
