[quote=Anonymous]I mean, I paid for my kids’ college with what I had saved for the prior 18 years. There was no additional outlay beyond the prior savings. That money was earmarked for education, it wasn’t a last minute “what should I spend this on?” Scenario. So I guess the answer to your question is nothing? We always prioritized retirement savings and college savings above all else. Whatever was there when they headed to college was theirs, but we weren’t sending more. We told them what they had available and all kids found ways to graduate within that range (whether graduating early, going somewhere cheaper, taking an offer with merit aid, etc)[/quote]
