step.eng69, are you heading west?
No Howie, but I'm happy for those that can make the trip and enjoy themselves. Kar & I have been financially helping our two grand boys with college the past five years. Both have graduated this past spring. TJ has a masters in biological science and is studying for his medical boards, hoping for entrance to med school. Jobie is in his first year at Penn State Law college, so I believe we will be helping for the next four years. After the kids, we're hoping to invest another $100 k into our house and upgrade from my 2009 LTZ. At 67, I may see the two boys graduate in medicine and law, but I don’t know if I’ll see the house completely restored. In 2007 we made $100k plus restorations in the house only to have our investments go to $hit in the crash of 2008. I make a good salary plus high end SS, but college is expensive. 30% kids, 30% state/fed, 30% for us, get my drift. We have three other grand girls, but my daughter’s father-in-law is helping with two of the three.
