All this is good to read about but is there talk about maybe starting to teach our kids that there are a million paths to success besides the Ivy League? I don’t see any of these families doing that.
I have already started telling my kids they should go to a state school and save a ton of money. Like both my wife and I. And we are doing just fine.
Is everyone so wrapped up running the rat race to notice that?
Part of the problem is attaching too much value to these schools.
- taolegal 4y agoI stressed myself out so much in high school thinking about the Ivy League when I really had no business in applying. I ended up having the epiphany early on and accepting that a state school was likely a better match. It ended up being one of the best decisions I've made. So many friends ended up paying boatloads at a private school.
