[quote=Anonymous]My kids came home from middle school talking about college. That was when we started talking about the money we have saved. Most of their friends talk about how they have to go to Harvard or Yale or whatever. To which I usually roll my eyes (internally, lol) We have enough money for them to attend UVA, which is pretty expensive. So they can go in state, or out of state for roughly that amount of money. We’ve also told them that if they have a dream school with a good reason to go, we’ll consider it. We have the money to send them wherever, but I value state schools, and don’t think we should be spending 100k/year (for three kids) without a damn good reason. We’ve also talked about gap years and community college. My kids are bright and motivated, but I think getting off the race to nowhere path might be good for them. [/quote]
