[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, don't do it. Save so that your kids & grand kids can inherit something! It's really foolish to put your family in a precarious financial situation....what if one of you lost a job, got cancer, etc. [/quote] what are you talking about?! people around here truly think this HHI is normal....its not normal and OP has nothing- zero-zilch to worry about in retirement. and that is not what she was asking![/quote] Um hello, they don't make enough to afford private AND save enough for a rainy day. It seems nutty to pay for private unless you are making 700k+[/quote] I tend to agree with you. We make about $500k HHI and am really struggling to justify $35k on one child for private. Yes, on paper it is easily paid for at this income. But what about the "what ifs of life?" Those are the things that keep me wondering.[/quote] Agree. We are at 320k and would never consider private. We would move before considering private. We would rather put that 35k in the market each year. [/quote]
