There's something on this board that has been bothering me, and I hope I can articulate it.

Also what good does it do you to have a higher SES if you live in a lower income neighborhood? If half of the children in your child's kindergarten don't know how to even "hold" a book...or less than 50% don't attend college....you need to find a better place to live...
ZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's no way to predict that a child will automatically be better off with the extra $. If a family values travel, they'll travel on 60,000 and forego the new Lexus. A kid won't be better off b/c Mom drives a nicer/more expensive car, once basic safety measures have been satisfied.
Haven't you scaled back your career? If more $ = better off children, why would you do that? Surely your kids would have even *more* opportunities if you made more money?

I'll try sending from another account.
I re-sent it - let me know if you still don't receive it.

It's the law of diminishing returns.

It might be a cultural thing - where I was raised you wouldn't think of hiring someone to handle your money, financial business is considered very personal - unless you were making millions or something perhaps.
