[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have 2 kids, we live in a 3 br townhouse in an exurb that has a 1400/mo mortgage, we send them to public school and we only save $2000 per year per kid for their college while having a 400k HHI. Rec soccer, cheap city summer camps. I don’t believe that you are morally obligated to financially strain yourself just to give your kids what society thinks is the ideal life. Our kids are very happy and don’t feel like they’re deprived from what I can tell. [/quote] Are you an immigrant?[/quote] Not immigrant would put their kids education on the back burner like this. Certainly not an Asian. [/quote] OP’s post reads white exurban American who thinks it’s 1970 and that you can still “work your way through college.” Those people tend to think it’s okay to kick their kids out at 18, too.[/quote]
