Re: Finances of 2+2ers
We're solid poker players around here, so assume we have smart kids that can get into good private schools. Taking my alma mater as an example, tuition and fees for 06/07 are north of $43K with no travel. That means the total college expenditure for two kids is about $350K. If I were worth $1MM, that'd 35% of my total assets out the door for college. Yeah, I'd sweat that -- I'd do it, of course, but I'd sweat it.

Re: Finances of 2+2ers
The 100k to 1 million range is absurdly wide. If you take a 35 year old with 150k in assets his lifestyle is nothing like a 35 year old with 900k in assets. Same with the difference between $1 million and $5 million.

Is there a way for me to go back and edit the poll to fix?
