"People who don't have money don't understand the stress," said Alan Dlugash, a partner at accounting firm Marks Paneth & Shron LLP in New York who specializes in financial planning for the wealthy. "Could you imagine what it's like to say I got three kids in private school, I have to think about pulling them out? How do you do that?"

Also, re. your quote, that guy ought to try having to decide between sending his kids to (free/scholarship) school and giving them lunch, because the number of times my mama had to make that decision bc we couldn't afford the school bus fare AND lunch...
And a month's family holiday every year? Wow. Last family holiday I had was aged ten, funded by Leukæmia Care charity because my mama had cancer. And that lasted a week. It's been six years since I could go away even for THAT long.
Foaming at the mouth, just a bit!
