I died at mofongo's post. You'll see.
ETA: wait. Maybe it was MKEsweetie, not mofongo. I'm too lazy to go back and check.

I love this.
For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
Yeah, that's what I was confused about. But did you get to the crazy yet?

Yes! And all "universities" are superior to all state schools. Moron.

We have something similar here in WA. How it works is you pay for units. 100 units = 1 yr of school. So you pay the current rate for a unit, then when your kid is of college age it gets paid out to you at the going rate of the most expensive public state school. So they take tuition at that school / 100 and that's what you get for ea unit.
If you go out of state, you still get the same value but will have to pay any difference out of pocket. It is also transferable between family members and can be applied towards room and board, books, etc in the case of scholarships or what have you. You can also request a refund, but obviously that's only going to be for the amount you put in and could've used/invested in other things over the years.

Tuition for OOS students at UVA is $37K. W/ room & board and other incidentals, it's $48K. WTF.

Just a little more than SBP claims to pay for daycare!
In-state is about $25K which still seems nuts.

This is how it works in TN, too. My grandparents paid for 4 years for me, but I didn't use it (went to a cheapo school--but still a University, because I'm fancy--so scholarships covered it). One of my 2nd cousins is using part of it now, and any units she doesn't use will go to her sister.

Mine was about $5K a year too, now it's about $7500 a year. Not terrible. I'm surprised, NYS is broke.
So, my spouse and dependents get free tuition at any MA school. TUITION. Not fees. Which are about 3X as much as tuition. Useful.

"That chick wins at Penises, for sure." -- Fenton
It was less than $2500/year when I was there.
My private college in NYC was around $24 K a year. (half the time I think it was a mistake to go there because it was so much money that I'm still paying back).
I cannot BELIEVE that any state schools are in the $30-$40K range! That's outrageous! This just made my prospects of having children a bit less likely. Unless they are geniuses or athletically inclined and get a scholarship.
My alma mater is rated one of the "best buys" for colleges by Forbes. Tuition is still under $6k a year.
BUT IT'S A STATE SCHOOL!
Lord knows it's a miracle I ever got a job.
