[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like an excuse to not save for college[/quote] Genuinely curious - What is with the blind allegiance to college here? This board is so antsy and active. Honestly wondering why so many hopes are pinned to this and why worth seems to be measured by what college your kid goes to. "Pointy" kids? Even the terminology is dehumanizing. What is the allure?[/quote] If your kids want to do something other than college: fine. Kids need to find their own way through life. But, for kids who are actually bright and into learning, going to college is a unique chance to get together with other bright people who are into learning. It can be a wonderful experience in its own right. If college wasn’t a great experience for you, sorry, but many of the rest of us did have a great experience in college and found that going to college did lead to gainful employment. [/quote]
