[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We weren't a family that could fully fund college for our kids.  They both went to community college and didn't pay anything because they got scholarships.  Then, they went free ride at our local state school.  It wasn't anything special, but they got their undergrads for free.  One kid is at Northwestern for her graduate/PhD program (combined) and they are paying HER to attend on stipend.  The other finished Med school and has about 50K in student loans.  She was able to get some scholarships, we paid for some of it, she worked a lot in high school.  Part of the reason they were able to do it was because they are both part Latina and there is money for underserved students.  Our goal from birth was to help our girls into strong careers.  I'm a teacher's aide with a high school education and my husband is a school custodian.  [/quote]

This is far more impressive than all of the people saving hundreds of thousands of dollars for their kids (of which I am one).  Seriously, congratulations on the job you have done with your kids.  [/quote]
