There is a private school in Brentwood, TN that costs $38,000 per year to attend. I cannot imagine paying $38k to send my child to kindergarten.

Astonishing.
The parents get lots of bragging rights though.
That’s really what it is all about.

I can’t help but think of the Trump kids. They have on many occasions said “we didn’t get any help from our Dad at all.”
The best K-8/9 schools, prep school, automatic admission to Wharton (Ivanka) and a guaranteed executive position in the Trump organization (where these pups had the audacity to challenge grown-ups on The Apprentice).
I don’t begrudge them their great lives — but it disgusts me they won’t admit their silver spoon.
I did come from poverty and graduated from Pepperdine University through hard work and stubbornness — some work-study, some scholarships, some loans which I paid off completely.
Sorry — touched a nerve I guess (/rant)
Excessively high tuition isn’t about bragging rights per se, it’s about exclusivity. Just like super expensive restaurants. It makes it a private club without it being a private club.
