I worked on my degree on Uncle Sam’s Dime while I was in the Army. Which was really MY dime, as I’ve been a taxpayer since I was a teenager, as well as paying taxes on my income for all of those years in the Army.
(Well, I guess some of you kicked in a little bit over the years too, LOL!)
But, in other words, I’m a Self-Made Woman. :)
We footed the bill for my daughter but my son had a college fund from the Army and used it all and like you say, he earned it.
