For the last 16 years, I had always planned on paying for undergraduate school and had never given much thought to graduate school. My husband and I both work in fields were tuition remission is common for graduate school.  My husband and did not get to where we are by having the attitude that so many people do- we will figure it out when it comes.  That attitude drives me bonkers.

Can you tell us what the fields are? I know companies can help contribute towards graduate school costs but not full remission. It'd be useful advice to pass along to kids about what they want to do.

Based on what you have told us about your finances, and that you still have another 15 years of working life to go, I would have no hesitations paying in full for undergraduate, and at least 50% of graduate school. After all, you're not doing anything else with your money. You can easily drop a million on your kids' college and graduate school expenses and still retire very comfortably. [/quote]
