[quote=Anonymous]We also have 4 kids. We started 529s a few years ago (wish we had done it sooner) and have asked grandparents to go easier on presents (Christmas/bdays) with money going to 529s instead so that has been helpful. Instate for sure. We're in VA so plenty of great schools to choose from. Also, hoping AP classes in HS will reduce what we will need to pay for tuition/credits in college. Depending on how things turn out, I'm hoping my #2 will go to community college for the 1st year or so and then transfer. It's way cheaper at a CC and since she has no clue about her major it's wasteful to send her to a university at this point when the same core classes can be completed cheaper. DH and I will not be pulling from our retirement funds. There are loans if the kids need them (or perhaps they'll appreciate their education more if they have to pay for part of it by getting a PT job), but there are no loans for retirement. [/quote]
