To certain family's money is no issue and only being the best is. I had the pleasure of meeting a 'Tiger daughter" and read her thesis. She was an amazing and kind person but her home life and what she had to endure was insane by "American" standards they only allowed her to be the best and nothing but.

This person had more accomplishments than my family combined, hell probably most families. The only reason she was at an IVY was because of her parents and they wanted her to be the best. Anything she wanted was hers but if she wasn't top of the class in everything she did, there would be hell to pay.

If you haven't heard the term Tiger parent or Tiger daughter here is a link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_parenting
