[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You guys need to stop counting other peoples' money.  You don't know their circumstances (nor should you).  You trust your school to make the determination of who is eligible for and deserving of financial aid.  If you believe you could fall into that category, please apply, and discuss the criteria with your schools financial aid office.  If you don't, other peoples receipt of financial aid has no impact on you.

We do not receive financial aid.  Maybe we could, as we are certainly not one of the "rich" families at our school - we go on vacations with our families, but typically drive, rather than fly.  Our kids have never been out of the country, and we had to disappoint our daughter that the Eras Tour wasn't going to happen, but all of their needs, and many of their wants, are met.  We live in a house currently valued at about 1.4M, but we definitely have to budget well.

Since we don't apply for aid, it doesn't matter to me if a "richer" family receives it.  It is simply none of my business, and I have more important things to worry about.[/quote]

You could do more but you choose to be house poor.  That’s really tone death. [/quote]
