Even the loaded ones earn it.

And whadya know, he wants to be a banker =)

Unnecessarily includes "My dad makes around $40,000,000/yr"...

Anyone else sense a troll?

That website is based on who can troll the hardest. Check urban dictionary for the true definition

After reading the urbandict posts on CC it just sounds like a bunch of losers who read CC and feel bad because they sucked at high school. CC helped me a lot during HS but I will admit it is a shithole and is terribly infested with trolls.

But this poster is definitely a troll. They go to a top public school in southern california and their dad makes 40 mil a year. No one would ever give away that type of info. And half brazilian/half asian? please...

I am trying to think of what the 'top public school' is in LA, especially one that has half the kids going to a top 20 school. I know of two private schools here that could fit but definitely not a public school. All the filthy rich, loserish kids go to one public school up in the Palisades and that is definitely not a 'top' school.

Hmm, interesting. I didn't know there was a good public school in Cerritos, Inglewood, and Cypress.

That being said, I bet they are either lottery charter schools or for kids only in those areas? I can assure you a family making $40MM a year is not living anywhere close to those three cities...you are probably hard pressed to find a family making $40K a year lol.

I am going with troll.

Definitely a troll.

haha 40 MM a year? Maybe. But there's also a possibility that he comes from a family where the parents don't ever talk finances with the children and he's just making a wild extravagant guess.

The thing about California is that it's different than the Northeast in that the top public schools are significantly better overall than any of the private schools. That's the primary driving force of real estate prices in certain cities like Palo Alto, Cupertino, Saratoga, where houses go for $1M+. I am guessing it's probably the same way in Southern California. The curriculum in these schools are significantly more competitive and difficult than say Independence High School in East San Jose, or Bellarmine/Harker (private schools in San Jose). The benefits of doing private schools in Silicon Valley relate to the athletic programs which are not a focus at the top public schools, or if you don't want to pay to own an expensive home, but would be taking on significantly more market risk on the value of your home during economic cycles.
