[quote=Anonymous]It will be fine, OP, but you have lean times ahead to pay for your kids' in-state college education. We are immigrants who came the US as adults. We were told by others to start saving for college when our kids were born. Instead, we put all our available savings in stocks like Apple, that ended up doing better than college savings plans. We moved to a great public school district to avoid paying for private school. We sacrificed house space for schools. We supplemented their education with tutors and ECs, which still cost us far less than a top private. Now we can afford any college our kids want, and our property has significantly increased in value, which was the twin goal. I hope you can pay for UVA or W&M, they're great schools! And please ignore the people who expect Ivies. Ivies are a lottery. Even top students are not guaranteed to get in. [/quote]
