I would think any parent who is spending that kind of money on growing children's clothing or shoes is REALLY bad with money.  And I would hope that federal taxes would not support her financial aid request when the time comes, as her parents were bad with money throughout the years.  You asked.

Why would you assume the parents need financial aid?  I have bought several pairs of Uggs for my young kids over the last couple of years, and you will never see a financial aid app from us.  For some people, a $100 pair of boots is the same as a $10 pair of boots to someone else.[/quote]

Tell that to all of the parents who come on here bitching that they can't get FA to private school on a $300K HHI.  I guarantee you a large percentage of them are the extravagant keeping up with the Joneses types that PP is talking about, prioritizing expensive ugly-ass shoes over saving for their children's education.  Boo flipping hoo. [/quote]

Because saving $50 on boots is clearly going to make up for 40k in tuition. This reminds me of another DCUM obsession - cancel your cable and you, too, will be rich.[/quote]

Listen, if you can't afford $40K in tuition on $300K a year (which yes, is rich anywhere), you're doing more wrong than cable and boots.  You need to shift your priorities.  Or choose a different school.  Or move to a better public school district.  You're not entitled to an expensive private school education.[/quote]

Why are you addressing me? I could care less for American pre college education, private or public -i wouldnt send my kids there if they piad me.

My point was, there are people who can easily afford uggs every year while not being anywhere close to be able to afford hundreds of thousands of $s in tuition. To suggest that they should cut uggs (or cable or Starbucks) is preposterous.[/quote]
