Please. Does anymore really need to be said?

The funny part to me was the end of the Wash Post article- her attorneys said she's "depressed" from the "total frustration and emotional suffering of fighting for every dollar." HUH???

She's getting $50K/year now, in less than 2 years when she hits 21 she'll be getting $100K/yr for 14 years. Then at 35 she gets 8% of the total value of the trust annually, which right now would be around $500K/yr. And that's GUARANTEED! She doesn't have to bat an eye to get those funds. Ohhh, the suffering!! Ohhh the frustration!!

I got a friggin idea, count your blessings for being more financially fortunate than 99.5% of the planet, get a stinking job for a while, or better yet, go to a public university in Texas. There are plenty of them. It's not you're being denied a college education because you can't afford $23K a year in tuition. This is a joke.
