[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You get to be around rich people. I went to a selective college as a middle class kid. I got a good education, but I could have gotten that at my state school. The biggest thing I got was marrying into money.[/quote]

Is this that attractive, though? We're not wealthy ($250k HHI), but upper middle class is good enough to let us do the things we want. Are there that many people honestly wanting more? Seems stressful.[/quote]

You’re showing your Midwest roots. Most on this board do not regard 250k as UMC, at all. [/quote]

What you think doesn't matter.[/quote]

It does actually. All our opinions count. Mostly bc you’re too gosh darn Midwest naive to figure out the merits of an elite education. Bless you. [/quote]

Please tell the IRS how $250K is struggling, okay?  :lol: [/quote]

The IRS is irrelevant. You would not be able to cash flow 85k per year for any of the elite colleges. That is a fact. You’re not UMC in DC you’re MC.[/quote]

Literally not how that works.[/quote]
