[quote=Anonymous]OP, what if your kid had a part time job that paid:

$6250 for tuition each year of college

an additional 40% of the tuition paid of what is left over from the $6250 if you worked a little longer ( see below).  40% of the in state amount.

$721 per month tax free during school months all up $6400 per year

Another $140 per month net for worked hours (16) on a set weekend once per month

A $20,000 bonus paid partially at year 2 and balance at year 5

And approx 14K of wages paid for what amounts to training to learn to do the job performed one weekend per month,  ( this part of the commit can be as short as 4 months but choosing a time slot closer to 8 months nets the 40% off tuition mentioned above.
The training to do the job could be for work in computers, cyber, medical other useful fields complimentary to career goals.

A security clearance also is included.

All up this is close to 110K- 120K in college money and wages spread out over 6 years,  pretty nice pay for part time work wouldn't you say?  And by part time I mean 16 hours a month, after job training is complete ( job training varies but no more than 8 months)

This is the current offer from The Virginia Air Guard and some of the $$ I included above is from the GI Bill and the Post 9/11 GI Bill which could be attained with a 90 day temp duty assignment.  All up its 6 years of 1  weekend a month after the initial training.  [/quote]
