[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]two fed families have had 18yesrs to save for college. This is what a 529 is for. I’m sorry for people who are well paid white collar workers too financially irresponsible to have planned for their kids education. [/quote]
And we are sorry that your kids are not high achievers.

well i have one at UVA and he was. National Merit Scolar. He’s such an under achiever🤣. Despite all we were adult enough to start putting whatever could into the 529 from the time i found out i was pregnant. [/quote]

Lol imagine bragging about all of the college saving you’ve done—and thinking you are superior in some way—because you’re “adult enough” and not “financially irresponsible” and then admitting your kid is at their in-state flagship. [/quote]

WTH?
UVA is definitely something to "brag about."[/quote]

They aren’t bragging about UVA, they’re bragging about how great they are at saving and then sent their kid to a tuition-controlled, taxpayer- subsidized school.

UVA is great. But don’t think you’re superior in some way because you saved for a school that half the people here could cash flow.[/quote]

Except, if you don't have a job, then cash flow is difficult. Hence why financially smart people save for college (and other things) while they have the chance, so that should something happen their kids can still attend a 4 year college.  It's called planning.  And half the people here might be in trouble with cash flowing if they don't have a job, or if both don't have a job.

So yes, they are superior in that they have successfully planned

Again, no one said there are no college savings. That you want to assume that says a lot about you.[/quote]
