My parents did not save for my college, nor offer any financial support past 16 years old. I worked hard in high school and got a TOPS scholarship. That still was not enough, so I joined the Army. I was living on my own with my twin brother by 19 and with TOPS, GI bill, student loans and tuition exemption, I was able to get my degree after 5 years. Honestly, it was not what I wanted to do, but I knew I needed a college degree and did what I had to do to get one. I will not be saving for my kids college fund, because I believe that if they want it bad enough, they will do it on their own, and it will make them that much better for doing so.
