1) Guarantee to pay price of state flagship (15k a year or whatever)

2) In addition, pay (25-x)/25 of the remaining cost, where x = USNews ranking.

For example, I'd pay 100% of 47k for Princeton, since its #1 (technically #0 with this scheme).

Or, for Northwestern, which is #11 and costs 52k, I'd pay 15k + (52-15)*(25-10)/25 = 37k

The CR thing to do it buy a rental property for each kid before you have it.

Funny you mention him. I had no idea who he was until I started watching some youtube videos on real estate since I'm currently buying a place.

As far as I can tell that guy and his crew put out zero useful information.

If your kids are emancipated the senior year of high school and live on their own, I think they qualify as independent, meaning no expected family contribution and high need-based aid.

Shouldn't be too hard to structure that favorably if you plan well in advance.
