[quote=Anonymous]We’re not low income by any metric except DCUM. But we also couldn’t save anything meaningful for my older DD, despite living a very modest lifestyle (2 bedroom apt, used cars, never been to Disney, etc.) One set of grandparents declined to offer any money because they tied it to religious identity for the other grandkids. My mom was very generous, but even with a half-scholarship, we couldn’t swing DD’s dream school. Ultimately, it turned out well as she ended up in a good program at a state school that provided amazing job contacts. There’s a bit of money for my younger DD, but at this point, she’s likely to earn full scholarships. That will be a deciding factor in where she goes. And we’re okay with that. [/quote]
