[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there are two kinds of complaints that bother me the most.

First, the people who are financially comfortable who complain that it’s not “fair” that low income students get money. They don’t seem to understand how persistent a low income kid has to be to overcome all the obstacles between them and going to college. They seem to think their kids obstacles were the same.

Then there are the people who convince themselves that they aren’t well off, even though they replace their cars more regularly than most, go on vacations, and live in a spacious home. I think hey look at the wealthy people in the area and social media and feel “poor” and deserving of financial aid. [/quote]

Well, the problem is not that people in these groups receive FA to get a college education but that they expect to have other people work to subsidize a luxury good.  No one needs to go to a private college if they are asking someone else to pay.  [/quote]

+1 There is zero reason to spend $60K+ for an undergrad degree.  [/quote]

Why?  You won't, so no one else should either? Would you spend $50? $40?[/quote]
