But if you’ve ever wondered whether that tuition bill is still worth it, or if you’ve been secretly thinking about pulling your kid out, we made this one for you. In this episode, we break down:<ul><li>Why the “$15K a year” number doesn’t tell the whole story</li><li>The hidden (and not-so-hidden) social costs of private school</li><li>How the new national voucher program could raise tuition, not lower it</li><li>What the research actually says about outcomes in public vs. private school</li><li>A side-by-side comparison of investing the money instead and what that could mean for your child’s future</li></ul>We also get into the emotional toll of living on the financial edge “for the kids,” the illusion of networking your way into elite circles, and what wealthy families are doing differently that might surprise you.Whether you’re team public, private, homeschool or just trying to figure it out, you’ll leave with better questions, clearer trade-offs, and (hopefully) a little less guilt.​​Links: <ul><li>Episode 151 - <a href='https://youtu.be/-3zg3ioX4hE?si=EfXEIBcEUUsVaiaA'>How to raise a “rich” kid</a></li><li>Episode 69 - <a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/69-investing-for-your-kids/id1562432041?i=1000574661490'>Investing for your kids</a></li></ul> Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our <a href='http://www.richandregular.com/'>website</a>, <a href='https://www.instagram.com/richandregular/'>Instagram</a>, <a href='https://twitter.com/richandregular'>Twitter</a>, and <a href='https://www.youtube.com/@richandregular'>YouTube</a>. <a href='https://richandregular.us19.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=ea4c6332a691ba7e83c195da7&id=dc61f8cd92'> Join our email list</a> to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.
