[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You make more than 95% of the people here, and probably more than 90% of the people on DCUM. So shut up. You're part of the problem.[/quote] Op - [b]isn’t the hope that our kids do better than we do? [/b] I know dh and I have done significantly better than our own parents. [/quote] Why? Sure, if you are a working class family it can be reasonable to aspire for your kids to achieve greater financial success. But when you've already reached the pinnacle of financial success, that's not a reasonable aspiration. (Sure some people make more but a extremely small number in a small number of professions that may not fit/interest your kids). That you think this way means you have already bought in to the competitive mindset. Just that you want your kids to compete with your success not other kids. [/quote]
