Money isn’t everything. How about going to a school that’s affordable. Also, you can make a very good living via a trade. I have been talking about that for 15 years. It’s not for everyone but neither is college. Going to college results in better outcome. You can argue the system but I am living in the current reality. You and others want a paradigm shift. Maybe it will happen. I don’t have to tell you but cutting the military budgets by about 2% would pay for college for most kids or heavily subsidize it. I remember the old days of kids going to school on a pell Grant. Country was great back then.

CNA's that care for your parents dont have them. You dont need one to be a lawyer in California.
Oh.....and if NOT for profit colleges get most of its "other" revenue from donors, then they can stop taking the billions from the government
But, in short.....have NO sympathy for all these debtors. NO one forced them to take out loans. And, if you can't pay back a $50k loan in five years, or less, was that college degree worth it.
I know guys like TLD will post post college earnings.....way HIGHer than non degreed earners.....but pretty sure that is old data. Remember, the 'greatest generation" went to college under a socialist program. SOCIALIST. What else do you call it?
Yeah.....and tv was free. And no cell phones. The real laughable college scenario are the state college system, especially in the pretend liberal states. It's going to be cheaper for my offspring to attend a NESCAC school than it would be to attend ZooMass, Amherst. Knew plenty of smart, yet bitter because they couldn't afford the schools they got into, students at College Park. You could work and pay your way. Today, we all know what the costs are for in staters. Aren't Massachusettes and Maryland caring Democratic states? Proof, that the TAATS don't care about the poor. And, any family living in those states that makes less than 6 figures IS poor. Don't kid yourself. You are.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Mon Feb 11, 2019 7:42 amMoney isn’t everything.

Yep. Those folks making less than 6 figures are going to raise hell if the marginal tax rate goes up on the $10,000,001th dollar.runrussellrun wrote: ↑Mon Feb 11, 2019 7:52 amYeah.....and tv was free.

That is great advice. Lie.youthathletics wrote: ↑Mon Feb 11, 2019 8:19 am The best thing a family can do is NOT save fore college, that savings will cripple you come admissions time. Parents need offshore bank acounts to shelter this money...or store it another familes account
It's not lying if they don't ask. Do the forms have questions about offshore bank accounts, other than "other assests"? Seems vague enough to not go in the lying terrotory.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Mon Feb 11, 2019 10:23 amThat is great advice.

I don’t know of too many people that believe sending a kid to college is cheap. Do you?runrussellrun wrote: ↑Mon Feb 11, 2019 10:40 amIt's not lying if they don't ask.

You can create a fictional relative. Or, non profit. The latter is the much easier root, what with those nasty unPATRIOT act rules for opening bank accounts. Why is it a colleges business to know someones financial situation. Said it before, the interest on only a small percentage of many college endowments will allow EVERYONE to attend for free. What is stopping Harvard/Hopkins from doing this? Nothing.
State college tuition AND room and board.....should be based on that states median income. Maryland, roughly $80k. Yet, you are asking parents to pay 15% of their income on just tuition and "books" if living at home/commuting. 32 % if their child is living on campus. Pretends don't see a problem with this. Instate tuition for ZooMass is about 30% of the "her way" states $100k median income. Doable, but tough to commute to Amherst from Lincoln-Sudbury. (LS kids to play for UMass anyhow )
The pretends sabre rattle about paying for college, but both states are controlled by pretend liberals. VERY expensive to go to the states "flagship" campuses. Guess the Terps basketball lockerroom needs new life sized pictures next to the players lockers, lest the forget their names or what they look like. Or, an indoor practice facility, even though the pretends "believe" their world is getting warmer. (aircondited facilities, you dumb dum )
