[quote=Anonymous]Op here. "We all choose how we spend $$. If you want to put it towards a house (car/trip/whatever) then college choices are limited to what the family can manage. There is nothing special about housing choices. If contributing to college is not a priority, it is totally fine, but don't expect the college to handle it for you." I have saved for college on my one income, albeit not enough to pay full freight at a private school for all 4 years. I live in a neighborhood you would probably sneer at, so it's not as though I have lots of choices for cheaper housing here. I paid on my own student loans until was in my thirties. You make it sound as if we all have the ability to save $400K per child in 18 years, but that some of us choose to blow the money on trips to Hawaii instead of setting it aside for college. [/quote]
