[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a bunch with four.  All SAHMs, highly educated, Uber uber wealthy, lots of help and run families like clockwork.  Kids all end up at best of everything with very diverse interests.   It’s fascinating.  It’s moms who went to Yale/Stanford/Harvard with the $$$ to back up everything have turned their drive/focus from being a student to being a mom.  I wish I was one of their kiddos.  Seriously.

I have so many questions for you about them! Would you consider starting an AMA??

But just to start, what are some of the things the kids are good at? And where does their money come from?[/quote]

I only have 3 but overall similar situation. A can answer Qs and am braced for this to turn into an attack.  I think the OP meant “with best of everything” (not the best at it). My kids are fairly young and definitely aren’t currently the best at anything but I can see how it happens.  They can explore any interest at any level of classes / coaching etc.  Lots of peer parents default to private lessons for everything (6yos taking private tennis lessons and painting lessons and fencing lessons..it’s a bit crazy to me.  We don’t do anything private beyond swim bc I want my kids to learn the social skills of groups).  Money came from a startup was at from founding IPOing (pre kids) and DHs career (hedge fund)

We aren’t like gossip girl rich but are like could retire today and still pay for everything we want in life (which doesn’t include private jets and multiple houses but does include paying for all kids college and grad schools and lots of travel) rich. Don’t know if you mean the higher levels than us rich. [/quote]

Sorry for typos - I meant I was at a startup from founding to IPO…[/quote]
