[quote=Anonymous]Take all of the money you have saved and put it into a Roth. Since it is retirement it will not be considered as part of your financial aid equation. Start now understanding the options - are any of your children interested in a Service Academy? Do any local high school programs off special programs with a local university to take college classes (not APs)? For example, School without Walls in DC has a partnership with GW. Do some college calculators to see what your family contribution will be so you can plan for it. Understand your child because sending your child to the cheap school that does not fit your child is throwing money away. If any of your children are interested in technology / programming, take java classes now and start freelancing. They can make 60-100K a year without a degree if they have a portfolio of work. They can work for a few years, put aside a lot of money and pay for their own school in cash.[/quote]
