[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At my Ivy I'd estimate that 30% of my graduating class (2009) carried the family Amex. My freshman roommate had her father's black card number memorized and he couldn't care less. How do you think these kids afford lavish spring breaks and random trips to music festivals. For the amount of money that gets talked about on this forum, people sure don't seem to have a clue how those who make that kind of money live. [/quote]
Believe me, most of us have a clue. We just have absolutely no desire whatsoever to raise our kids that way.[/quote]

:roll: More like you absolutely don't have the money to raise your kids that way. Enough with the moralizing.[/quote]

Exactly.

And, as someone 10 years on who attended said schools, almost all of the kids who got bankrolled by their parents are doing wayyyyy better than the rest of us.  Because when your parents are willing to pay for you to live in a NYC apartment for a summer with the best clothing, restaurants, etc- that's a major career/networking boost[/quote]
