[quote=Anonymous]You know what’s a really, really bad ROI? Having kids. People who focus on ROI for college, but didn’t when they decided to have kids, are just bitter that they screwed up their whole lives with a bad investment. Apparently, they weren’t smart enough to realize that all the little costs of raising children for 18 years added up to more than the cost of college when discounting those costs to present value. Moreover, now their kids won’t even be contractually obligated to repay them when they are old and in need of care even if they go to college and get a great job, so they get nothing at all out of the deal. Kids are really a bad investment if you look at it from a ROI perspective. If you’re very focused on expenses and returns and you want your kid to go to college, send them to community college and have them transfer to your state school for the last two years. That makes more sense than a four year school.[/quote]
