Just curious what you all do/think/have done.
Our kids are just getting to college age. I don't know what they will choose for college or what the costs will be and it will depend on their majors, etc....
But I am just wondering how you make it equitable money wise.
The below is just an example:
Let's say you have $60K available for each kid ($15K per year to contribute).
What do you do if one kid chooses to use all of it, even maybe takes out loans to cover the rest. And the other kid only needs $20K of the $60K. Do you give him the difference in another way, maybe give him a down payment for a house or get a car or something?
Please don't argue, I know everyone does things differently, I genuinely wonder what is equitable.
