[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]18!years ago, when my kid was a baby, a friend told me that her financial advisor said four years at a private college would cost our kids $400k, so that number always stuck in my head. Turns out it was spot on. :([/quote] My husband’s uncle said this to us around/near the time of our wedding. I didn’t believe him. [/quote] We have neighbors with a newborn. My kid attends their alma mater. They are 37. [b]They thought tuition was $65k——absolutely shocked when I told them it’s now $90k.[/b] They didn’t believe us until they looked it up. [/quote] I think many people see a "tuition" figure and don't realize that "room and board" are separate.[/quote]
