[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When people ask these kinds of questions, why do they never provide financial details? Genuinely curious.[/quote]

[b]One it’s a public forum[/b]. And two, if OP is rich they’ll get all go to top ranked, you can afford it. If not, a bunch of no brainer go to UVA. Kills debate.[/quote]

And it's also anonymous so  :roll: We don't need to know your net worth, just whether you have the money saved or not.[/quote]

Nah, you really don’t need to know that.  And if OP has saved the money, that doesn’t resolve the issue.  There’s still the question of whether this is how they want to use the $$ they’ve saved. [/quote]

What else would you use it for? If you've saved ~ $300k in a 529, it's not like you can suddenly decide "oh hey I'd rather give this to you as a house down payment."[/quote]

To add to this, I just don't get the point of these types of questions. Listen, we're saving as much as we can for our kids' college educations ($1250 a month per kid). I'm sure they'll also apply to their state schools as backup. But if they get into high priced privates, that's where they'll go because [i]that's literally what we're saving the money for[/i]. I just don't get it. Why save that money if not to pull it out now and be like "hey yes you can in fact go to that school that costs $70k a day."[/quote]
