And I fully plan on having my hypothetical kid have some skin in the game. Don’t believe in Ivy League schools as I think it’s more about what you put in it than the name.
I went to a Private school for one semester and those spoiled “rich” kids where clueless at how others lived and had to work their way through life. They were used to getting whatever they wanted. Brand new luxury cars for their 16th birthdays. Debutante balls. In awe that I had to actually work part time to support myself and pay for school. I ran far away to the “commoner” schools.
Yah, uhm no thanks. Skin in the game. No spoiled, clueless, entitled kids for me.
Depends on what your definition of “rich” is. It’s all relative. And really people in our income level are far from blue collar. Come on. $400k is blue collar? On what planet?We are doctors. We are basically very well educated blue collar workers. What we call "rich" while it is well beyond thr average American is not the type of rich that bankers think of. Unless you are doing some boutique or concierge medicine we hang out with people on all socioeconomic classes and backgrounds.
Personally I believe in contributing to my children's education and futures the same way my parents did for me. I think a lot of immigrant families understand the hardships involved as a 1st generation immigrant and work hard to give their kids a better (not spoiled) life
