[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, OP is willing to spend thousands on a financial advisor but not willing to pay what she owes for her kid's education. [/quote] "What you owe" is so completely arbitrary and the process is so opaque that the concept is meaningless. Two people with the same income and assets can end up with wildly different aid offers for reasons that neither party will ever know. If your kid gets a free ride because this year they want female flute players but my kid has to pay full price because they already have enough male Eagle Scouts, does that mean you didn't "pay what you owe" but I did? [/quote] You are really stretching it. OP is talking about strategically rearranging or reporting/not reporting her true assets so she can transfer the burden of paying to some other families. It's also know as "gaming" the system. If that doesn't bother you, then you have a deeper issue. [/quote]
