half asian, half black .

Im just observing things. Alot of highly educated asians i know have big houses, but not much stuff. they dont go on many flashy vacations or have 4 wheelers or jet skis.

Im not gonna lie, i like the rich white lifestyle

Just curious how people afford it

Most of them of you see are probably in debt up to their ears.

Both have significant cultures of taking care of their parents. On the contrary, it's not uncommon for white grandparents to still be helping their children/grandchildren.

Just different priorities. Plus a lot of people make more than you think.
Nurses can take in a lot of money. Hell I know social workers making $65k.
There are librarians making $55k and on up. Some almost reach 6 figures.
If a household has 2 incomes that are doing fairly well, then it isn't that hard to see them finding the money for private school. When you figure daycare is $650 a month, is private school really that big of a deal? Just get used to paying daycare and act like it never stops.
Wife and I pay daycare for our 4 year old, and next year when kindergarten comes, it won't really change anything for us financially.
We do take vacations but we use reward points a lot. Our house is nothing fancy (about $160k) but we put money in the bank each month, and that's more important to us right now.

Because 4 wheelers and Jet Skis are the epitome of success? I know you certainly never went to a private school if thats how you judge wealth.

Listen Tiger, I know Elin left you, but you should still have plenty of money for private school.
