My kids are elementary age and I'm finding that everything basically requires private lessons. I mean, not really in the sense that you can pursue these activities without private instruction but in reality, yes you need one-on-one coaching if you want to progress. We have 2 kids in private tennis lessons and now one in private ice skating lessons. You just don't get enough attention in group lessons to make any progress.


^ Also private ski and swim lessons but that's more normal.

Also where I live, you basically have to join a country club to have a social life in the summer. That's expensive. 5 figure initiation fee and then monthly dues and fees of ~ $700.


Agreed. Where I live (Montgomery County) it's considered gauche to only join one country club. We can manage one membership, but the second really eats into our middle class income.

I'd rather have more money in an objective sense, as in $$$ in the bank. So whichever that option is.

High HHI does not mean anything if you cannot save and grow your wealth. I want to be wealthy. That is different than being high income.

Where on earth are you moving that they prohibit you from traveling internationally? I did the MOST international travel when I had the least money.

Least among the wealthy. I don't really care about keeping up with the joneses, so I'd rather have more $ in the bank.
