I can't believe you actually said that. I looked for the winky smilie, but it wasn't there. ????


I'm not joking. What little college I've had I paid every cent for. I made damn sure I got an A to get my money's worth. Had my parents paid for college they probably would have wasted their money.


I understand where you are coming from....but here's how that plan doesn't work. My parents didn't contribute a dime and I didn't have anything....so my school choices were limited (I went to a 2 year school for 1.5 because of price alone).

My husband wants to pay for kid's college...but I think we'll meet half way.....we'll pay for tuition to any school and they pay for their own expenses
