[quote=Anonymous]my NMF got more fliers from Tennessee and Tulsa than Middlebury or Pomona. it IS okay to help kids. sorry I don't buy everyone's "I didn't help at all and now he's at Williams" line. it's perfectly find to say, "I told him about a summer program I thought would be super interesting, explained early on how much we could afford and how FA and merit aid works, saved monthly for 18 years into a 529, explained how the new rules mean he could save some of that 529 and roll it into a Roth IRA, explained how certain professions pay more than others or require a graduate degree and how that impacts what he should pay for undergrads, took him on 11 college visits, took a day off and booked dand paid for 2 airline tickets, booked and paid for 5 nights in various hotels, attended an online seminar about paying for college, joined a couple weird online message boards, and had my sister read over his essays." But I guess that doesn't have the same ring to it. [/quote]
