777.0. "Investing for college financing?" by TPSYS::BONNEAU (Rich Bonneau TP Engineering - DTN 227-4327) Mon Oct 17 1994 10:15

This may not be the correct place to put this request - but where might I get
information about how to do financial plannning in order to pay for college?  My
son is going to start next September, we will probably not qualify for any aid
and I am faced with at least 4 years of bills which would be close to $26K per
year!   The facts aren't all bad - I have been putting away 6K per year for DEC
stock and 8K a year towards the SAVE program.  We have a number of IRA's and
other retirement accounts, and we have been told that re-financing the home
would provide some additional cash as well as some tax benefits.

What else can people tell me about the daunting task of paying for my son's (and
later my daughter's) education bills?

Any references or contacts would be very much appreciated!
