From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

Yeah.

And about $550 on like random shopping or if I want like a new thing or if I want like a new Apple Watch, for example, that'll come out of that budget.

Transportation, I take the train a lot and I fill up the gas for a car.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

And that's pretty much it.

Marketplace All-in-One

It feels possible.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

Because the other thing we didn't look at is that I have a whole bunch of money saved up.

Marketplace All-in-One

So I have 500 bucks every month that I put away into a high yielding savings account.

$500 a month I put into my wife's savings account, which is a separate account.

So very realistically, that's a thousand bucks right there I could spend.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

So in that case, if I just save nothing.

But continue to contribute to my kids' college fund.

Or I can reduce that number and maybe split it.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

So I think it's not out of the realm of possibility.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

I just think it's probably irresponsible.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

You know, it probably makes more sense to just put your kid in public school and save that money.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

No, I'm not.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

I don't want to have kids who can't speak Arabic or read Arabic.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

I think to me, this is the only chance I get to do this, right?

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

When they're really, really young.

Marketplace All-in-One
From "This Is Uncomfortable": In America, cultural education doesn't come cheap

I won't get another chance like after high school to help guide them and like help them learn Arabic for the sake of them being connected to this massive heritage that they're inheriting.
