[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are saving for college you have discretionary income.

Most people would LOVE to save for their child's education, but for them, that  is not an option. They are busy paying for the day to day, which is very expensive in this area. Especially, if you are trying to give your kids the things to  come easily to most of their peers (braces, SAT Prep, camp). If you are a wealthy professional, or head up a two earner family, please don't act superior to others who love their children as much as you do (and may well work harder) but could not afford to put aside colleges savings over the past few decades.

No, they would LIKE to save for their child’s education, but the LOVE a bigger house in a wealthier county, or a new kitchen, or fancy cars, or IG worthy vacations, or shopping more. People fon’t like making choices and don’t like delayed gratification. Also the reason for our national debt. All of you who think you can’t afford it now while making s good income, what happens when taxes are raised or Social Security also gets cut in the future?[/quote]
