[quote=Anonymous]My parents didn't contribute a dime to my education. I worked 15-20 hours during the school year and 40 hours during the summers and was able to graduate with a very small amount of loans that I paid off within 3 years of graduating. But this was in the late 80s, I was a Michigan resident, and the cost all-in was about $3000/year. I think the college prices of today just make it a whole different landscape. How old are you, OP? I do agree with having skin in the game but there's just no way my kids could do what I did, even if we were residents of Michigan. (Out of state? Even more impossible.)[/quote]
