There is no savings plan that can appreciate enough for 4 years of college in 18 years of saving.


A $5k deposit and $1k a year subsequently at 6% return would give you $50k in 18 years. Most everyone making $80k household could easily do that if they prioritized it and that with good grades would easily pay for college

If it could everyone would be investing there.


Half of people don't even contribute to their own retirement.

So with LSU for instance, you’ve covered tuition and I’d say books for 4 years. Now just have to do room and board (or rent), food, etc.

That’s what a year. 18 months.
