[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would have said it more nicely, but I also don't understand the impulse to liquidate retirement assets to keep up with the Joneses. One of the best gifts you can give your children is the ability to be happy with what they have. Followed by the ability to take care of yourself in retirement. So, buy the house you can afford in the school district you have your heart set on, and forget about what other people think.[/quote] That's the rub. It's house you can afford with all-in or time in the car? Or stick renting apartments and gamble on our kids being odd man out ? We couldn't care less about joneses, but kids are by nature more sensitive to such things. [/quote] So the original question of fitting in vs driving, consensus seems to be stay put and try to yeah our children well! Sounds good but daunting, peers have such sway with kids as they get older. [/quote]
