Incorrect headline as far as I can tell: I don't see the actual rules stated anywhere, but it's consistently hedged with "most", and their calculator makes it clear that there's an asset test, so if you're anywhere near $250k, planning is likely still necessary.
Are these tuition caps better trackers for what wealthy means these days than say conventional rule-of-thumbs (like making six figures used to mean you were wealthy)?
No. On a 250k salary, I can afford a very comfortable life in some of the best neighborhoods in America on a single income, with fantastic public schools, libraries, community parks, dining and fresh groceries.
It won't be Manhattan or San Francisco - but I wouldn't consider those cities to be among the best anyway.
