[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We make around $450k and manage to pay 2 tuitions with some family help, but when I look around my kids classes what’s obvious is that many families are just very wealthy. Large homes in Potomac or McLean plus summer homes, fancy vacations, very expensive cars, pricey country clubs. If you want to feel kind of poor with an income of $450k in dc just enroll your kids in a top private school.[/quote] +1 - this was our family. You make decisions about what you can’t go to afford tuition. Vacations were tough and no major house renovations or fancy furniture. One ended up going public for HS because there wasn’t a good fit for them for private. Have to be honest that it took a lot of pressure off our finances. [/quote] At 450k you can still afford private and vacations. [/quote]
