[quote=Anonymous]This guy makes 100K and has two stepkids and multiple kids of his own? Depending on where he lives, and his expenses, he may have zero to contribute to college expenses. He may feel he needs to prioritize saving for his own retirement, and frankly I would feel he is right. The OP seems to be assuming that his line is a lie and that he will pony up for his own kids but not the step-kids. I see no reason to assume that's the case. The real asshole in this story is the kids' deadbeat dad. Having kids does not mean you are vowing to send them to whatever college they wish. I don't see how his being a step-parent is relevant. Unless he was paying for his "own" kids but not his step kids, and I'd agree that would be wrong. Not going to college does not mean your life is ruined. Give me a break. My brother didn't go to college and he makes more than I do, with my fancy masters degree in the liberal arts....[/quote]
