[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you go to a shoe store and want a designer sandal but your mom forces you to pick store brand because well, both can get you where you want to go, how happy would you be. It’s a silly example a college consultant once gave but it stuck with me.[/quote] But what if you, the parent, understand that the designer shoe is that expensive mostly due to marketing and “exclusivity,” and the store brand shoe is a great, sturdy, well designed shoe?[/quote] This. Kids don’t get to decide how their parents spend money. Maybe in 10 years the kid would wish they had gone to the state school so their parents could have helped them out with a home purchase.[/quote]
