[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're currently paying for daycare. Isn't that pretty close to a state school cost on a per annum basis? Just take that money and allocate to college cost. You will likely have a few years before you actually are paying college costs so put it in 529, then just keep paying. Unless your daycare is free it should be a good chunk of the puzzle.[/quote] Good advice! Another point is when they get older, there's their sports/activities costs that you won't be paying and could be money towards college. When my DD retired from competitive gymnastics in HS, that was at least $7K a year we had to go instead towards her college tuition. When my DS ends travel soccer in couple of year, that'll be a few thousand. Certainly won't cover the cost of college, but it helps.[/quote]
