[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ha. I’m Mormon and I can tell you how we do it. 1. Start having your kids as an undergraduate so you can use Medicaid to cover it (I did not do this but it is done often). 2. Get family to help with babysitting or pay a teenager to do it. 3. Family vacations are to national parks or relatives in another state. 4. Public school or homeschool and cheap extracurriculars 5. Put two kids in a room, three if you’re in NYC. 6. Budget budget budget. Lots of coupons and very little eating out. [/quote] Also every Mormon I know did their undergrad at a church school like BYU (very cheap), a state school, or a prestigious school on scholarship. Mormons have a kind of Puritan hangup about debt. And I don’t personally know any Mormon who is getting substantial help from a parent. My dad paid for my undergrad at BYU and gave me 10K for a down payment on a house and that’s more than most Mormon parents do. [/quote]
