Did you -- or will you -- pay for your kids' college?

I'll see when the time comes. But, like I said, I paid for my education. Although I went to a state school undergrad - in state tuition to make it cheaper. Private school in grad school but work covered most of that. My brother went to an Ivy league school and received loans and grants. Then to med school to come out with $100,000 of loan debt to have it all paid off (including taxes on the loan payment) by working in an "inner city" for two years. That "inner city" was a small town in PA. I've seen WAY too many cases of people taking care of college costs without it bankrupting them.

Maybe times have changes where they no longer allow white kids to get any assistance (loans or grants) to go to state schools?
