Why do you want to go to an Ivy League school?

tk, is that a made-up example? Not to digress, but I find it pretty sad that someone who paid $300K for a house 14 years ago only has $50K equity.

<p>Yes, it is a hypothetical example. However, if I change the amount owed on the house to $0, specify the house was purchased for $170K in 2000, and keep everything else the same, I still get the same net prices as above. </p>
