Difference between an Ivy and a Top Public School?

<p>^ I live in NYC though, where $250k does not go that far. We still live in a small apartment.</p>

<p>Also, for whatever reason, now I am surrounded by people with $10mm+ so I guess my perspective is skewed. </p>

<p>Anyway, I don’t think your school really matters for earning power (outside of grad school rankings where your job opportunities may be tied directly with grad program rankings). </p>
