[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I’ll give my perspective. The future is only getting worse and wealth disparities are only getting more extreme. Wages have not kept up with the cost of living and inflation. UMC isn’t what it used to be, and even people making HHI in the top 20% feel strapped — that’s why you see so many people on here complain that there HHI of $250k “feels poor.” [b]I want my kids to be in the 1%. And to do that, the most sure fire way is to go to an Ivy (or Stanford/Duke/MIT), get a high GPA in a quantitative major (so no English majors in our household!), and graduate to make a ton of money in tech or finance.[/b] [/quote] Curious if you graduated from an ivy? Some of these parents seem to be reaching - unless of course, they donated about 10+mil.[/quote]
