Cost of attendance at a college I attended for a couple years:

Tuition and Fees: $67,480

Housing on campus in a shit pure shit dorm for fall/spring: $7,880

Mandatory dining plan to live in sps on-campus housing: $10,300

Total for First Year: $86,020.

College now costs like $350,000 per kid. Just for a useless undergrad that qualifies no one for a job wherever.

No, I just can’t keep up with the costs of life. It’s crippling. I have lower standard of living, live in less desirable housing, cannot catch up for the life of me compared to my parents. It’s sick and it’s sad because they see me as having a much more elite career, but the truth is dark and it’s sad.

That is what they charge. It makes no sense.

To be entirely fair, you can still get a degree at a state school for like $40,000 a year which is much more reasonable.

At $40k per annum, I’d need just $640,000, minus the $194 k we have already saved, and that’s like $444,000 over 20 years or $1,850/month.

Oh, God, no you wouldn't give a 19 yo a million dollars. You're absolutely right.

I meant you'd help them find their first job and acquire some tools. When they're ready, you help them get a work van and more tools, set up their website and basic accounting and payroll, to start their own business. Once they're good at both the trade and the business side, maybe you help look for acquisition or expansion opportunities. Help them own their own shop and fleet.so that they can control overhead and weather any lean times. And, that way when they're 55 and their knees have gone and you've got a foot in the grave, they're basically on cruise control as an owner and not a doer.

It really is fucked up. Like something has to give. Cost of a private 4 year university could legitimately be $1 million 20 years from now, the way tuition goes up every year. There’s no way UMC folks like most of us will be able to afford that with our shitty wage increases not even matching inflation.

Everyone should be directing their children to their local state public flagship school. The whole notion of sending kids across the country to out of state public unis, private LACs, and no-name schools never made any sense and it certainly doesn't at the absurd price points they demand now.
