[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We make 200k before taxes have two kids in private and get about 40 percent FA. When we started our kids on private we made less. Our mortgage is 2k. We live in a 3 bedroom home in a marginal area. We have 2 old cars paid off ( kids now dr drive to school). And newer one for commuting. I also help out our nephew who is in a bad situation thru no fault of his own. He's a teenager. We contribute to retiremt but have saved very little for college so unless our kids get FA they will go to in- state schools for college. We hire a cleaning service once a month and someone to clean up the yard each Spring. We are careful with our food budget and only take modest vacations although our kids have traveled to exotic places with their schools. We are very great full for the FA which has allowed our kids to go to a wonderful school [/quote] This sounds like us except we are not on FA and make more but definitely make sacrifices. You sound like a nice family-the type FA was intended for. [/quote]
