[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had $138k fro my son. He is entering senior year of college and we have $80k left.

We have $160K saved for my daughter (entering senior year of high school). [/quote]

This is PP. We started at 85k HHI and saved $100 a month. We probably hit $200K when the kids were 14 and 10. We are at $260k. At the height of college savings we were putting in $1200/month. [/quote]

NP here. We started at 25K HHI and saved $200 a month. I probably hit $2M in each 529 plan when the the kids were 14 and 10. I now have an HHI of 8 figures and a NW of 12 figures. BTW, we only own a used Toyota Civic with 7M miles on it. [/quote]

I know you think this is funny but I was just trying to share the power of compounding interest and the power of saving with a lower HHI. I am not trying to  set aside the fact that $1200/month is a decent savings later on, but a decent chunk of that money was earned very early on. I had my first way younger than anticipated and I doubt you have any clue what someone like me sacrificed. [/quote]
