Parents send kids to private schools not for better education but to keep them away from the lower income kids and their mannerisms. I send my son to public school-he does just fine. He's 6 and in the first grade, his teacher say's his reading tested out to early 6 grade level. It's not anything the school did or I did, he's just that way. Private school would make no difference-just a waste of my hard earned trading dollars. Btw, his school gets a 4 out of 10 on the GreatSchools website. This from that retired hedge fund trader Andrew Lhade was hilarious "# `The low-hanging fruit, i.e. idiots whose parents paid for prep school, Yale and then the Harvard MBA, was there for the taking. These people who were (often) truly not worthy of the education they received (or supposedly received) rose to the top of companies such as AIG, Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers and all levels of our government. (where can I stand and clap? But Mr. Lahde, they must be paid 350x the median worker because only these 500 individuals could run a company into the ground - get with the program fella!) # ``All of this behavior supporting the Aristocracy, only ended up making it easier for me to find people stupid enough to take the other sides of my trades. God Bless America.''
