or someone who may have been driving a beat up car just to save for ivy education for their kids[/quote]

:roll:  Like the rest of us are rolling around in 90k cars. Sticker price on my vehicle is less than one semester at ivy league. [/quote]

But do you drive that $45K vehicle for 10-12 years? Or do you replace it every 5-6 years?  For "donut hole families" that can make the difference in. what you can afford for your kid (that and other similar cost saving choices you make along the way)[/quote]

Most people who claim donut hole are making $200-500K and its a joke as they could save and choose not to and then want to complain about the cost of college and expect others to pay.[/quote]
$200K family of 4 living in a hcol hard pressed to spend $80K x 4 yrs x 2 kids = $640K without impacting retirement.[/quote]

This we're around 225 now with two kids who will be in school at the same time. For most of their lives we made less. We'll be able to pay instate easily at most school, two in W&M would be a stretch. We've been saving since but, saving the 800k it will cost two send two kids to a private school by the time they are old enough was never going to happen. [/quote]
