Some people have decided that money is more important than people.
We have seven children, so far. When we decided not to limit our family, we also decided that we would do the best we could, as regards their higher education, but we're not going to agonize over it.
My parents have set up accounts for them all, and purchased some securities. We also make deposits, especially for the older ones, when we have extra. AND we're insisting that all the children save a portion of any money they earn or are given.
But in the end, it will be up to them and their own efforts whether they attend college, or where they go. Right now, our oldest is interested in military academies ... if she's prepared for that, even if not selected she'll have plenty of scholarship offers other places. Our second child wants to be a carpenter. Third one wants to be a priest. Fourth plans to marry a prince :-). God will provide.
As for retirement, I plan to go back to work at about the age other people are retiring ... IF we don't have more children, I'll be 58 when the youngest leaves home!
Enjoy them and look forward to grand children. They're even greater!
Wow. Congratulations. Keep up the good work raising little conservatives.....
