[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I have no college fund saved for our kids. We are both highly educated, and we have put our money into real estate. While we can afford most of the in state tuition for both our kids, we also want them to get academic scholarships and start earning during college. We have invested greatly into their other pursuits, sports and tutoring and private schools now. If they insist on going into a school we can't afford fully from our salaries, we'll help as much as we can but the rest is up to them. DS is on the path to get at least a partial sport's scholarship and academic and quite frankly, UMD is a great school, that we can afford, and if they want to go somewhere else, they can find a way. I am more educated than DH and earn 20 times less than he does, so in the end all that education didn't matter due to my choices to mostly spend time with my kids and work part time. Kids who want it will find a way. [/quote]
