[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's kind of maddening when you are full pay at colleges and your kid's roommates get substantial aid and live much nicer lives than your DC kids do.

I have 2 in college and we are full pay all around with a DC income of $400K.  My kids' middle America roommates are both (fr and soph) on 50%+ aid but have cars on campus, much fancier clothing, have all sorts of spending money for eating off campus.  My kids have never owned a car, eat in the dining hall full time, etc.

There is something to be said for living in a LCOL area and making under $200K.  You go to college for free or at half cost but still have the same lifestyle outside of school as those of us making almost twice the income in a HCOL town. [/quote]

Yea you've been on here complaining before.  But the truth is, you know nothing about your kids' roommates except what your kids tell you, and your kids sound petty and nasty.  [/quote]

I haven't said a word about this on here before.  [/quote]

You have a clone then[/quote]
