  You need to MOVE, move to a different state, small town---you know, where you can buy 5 bedroom homes for at the MOST, $78,000--yes, 78,000.....plus land to go with it.....NO REGRETS AT ALL !!!!!   Only a 15 minute commute. [/quote]
To a job in what field, and with what salary?[/quote]

And schools?? That so what traps us here, low COL generally means and school quality. [/quote]

People worry too much about this. I grew up in rural part of the Midwest. My bff from college (we went to a top national school) came from the best public schools in NJ. I graduated with a higher GPA than her (and yes, we both took college seriously). To a large degree, it is what you put into it. Was I a bit behind freshmen year, sure. Did I end up graduating in the top 5% of the business school, yes.

Your kid is not doomed for failure if they don't have the best schools ever.[/quote]

Yes, but didn't they teach you statistics in business school? The odds are less favorable. Peer effects are real.

And rural Midwest is generally fairly higher SES since its farmers who are essentially small business owners. I doubt you were going to school with from hands. [/quote]
