[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our plan is 4 years of in-state tuition. We hope to be able to also pay 50% of room and board. While I would love to pay 100%, I think we need to prioritize retirement. If our kids choose an out of state or private college, we will give them the equivalent money towards tuition. We don't want our kids to graduate with a load of debt, but see nothing wrong with them working summers and/or having a part-time job after freshman year of college. And if our financial picture changes, we will do more. My parents paid 100%. I skipped a lot of classes and had a bit too much fun. DH paid every penny of his and he was a committed student. So I do agree with be PP comment that they should have some skin in the game. [/quote] Yes you and your DH obviously represent the rest of the world and your children will be exactly like you![/quote]
