[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, To answer another question. Yes. She applied for financial aid by filling out a FAFSA.

There is no way I can pay what they calculate at our EFC. I wonder how they come up with that number. I mean, it’s not a matter of if I’m frugal and don’t go on vacation and keep driving my 5 year old car I can swing it. It’s like literally there is no way I can come up with that much money per year.[/quote]

Please ignore the rich holier-than-thous, the trolls, and the posers.

Normal readers understand that your comment was meant to imply you were not using potential college $$ for a car payment.[/quote]

Thank you. Yes. It was just an example. [/quote]

It was a bad example. A lot of parents driving much older cars to pay for kids college.[/quote]

NP.  Fools abound!  Do you know how many years OP drove her previous car before it broke completely?  Do you know the make and cost of the 5 year-old present car?  Do you know if the 5 year-old present car is a used car or bought new?  But one thing is certain.  You can make snarky comments and it doesn't require much intelligence.  Same goes with the person with $700K HHI and two older cars. [/quote]
