[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS got accepted to one of the Ivies—think Princeton, Yale, or Harvard—but we would have had to pay the full cost, around $100K per year. He also got accepted to University of Florida with a full ride (tuition plus room and board). We told him that he could attend UF and have $400K+ (depending on investment growth) waiting for him at graduation, or he could attend the Ivy. Seven years earlier, one of his older brothers had been in the exact same situation and chose to attend an Ivy League school, which he later regretted. His $300K could have grown into several million dollars. We’re not wealthy, so while money isn’t everything, it’s important to be able to live a stress-free life. My older DS advised his younger brother to take the $400K and attend UF, and he did. He’ll be a freshman at UF in a few months. YMMV.[/quote] let's see what he thinks of his decision later. i was full pay at HYP. no regrets! [/quote]
