For the record, I’m not American nor live in the US, but I have a 19-year-old son who started attending the University of Chicago this year, studying economics. Just the tuition itself is $70k. My husband and I are lucky enough to be able to afford it - I still believe it’s an outrageous amount of money to attend college.

    Idk why you phrased that as a question as if it isn’t pretty obvious

      Because it’s pretty common to turn an obvious statement into a question to make a point to the person asking?
