[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Details of the finances do not matter. I just want her to look at the total cost and the impacts. We have over a year to decide. But, 25K is a number I can pay out of pocket; 70K I can not. It is that simple. I do not want to take out loans. I could pull cash out of my retirement fund (I will be 59 1/2 in her soph. year). That would probably require me to work until I am 70 instead of 66, though. I can also point out, that as my only child/heir, in the end it is her money we are spending.[/quote] Then, talk to her about it. I don't understand the issue. You tell her she can apply to any school she wants and if she gets aid, great, and if not, this is what you can afford to give her per year and you don't want her to take loans. Why is there so much drama?[/quote]
