[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll pay if I have the money, if I don't, then [b]my kid will just have to work through college like I did[/b]. It didn't break me, it made me a better person. It's not a should or shouldn't question. It's a can or can't question. Like many things in life, I will try my best to set my kid up but if I don't have the means, she will just have to suck it up and deal. [/quote] I worked through college, too. It took me 6 years to graduate. But tuition was relatively cheap and I could do it on a minimum wage (or close) job. Not sure that's really possible anymore. Tuition is crazy -- University of Maryland estimates annual expenses, including tuition, etc., is $22,000 a year. A 40 hour a week min. wage job gets you about $15,000. Most of us here will be able to help our kids through college. But so many people can't. [/quote]
