Default Totally OT

BUT living within your means teaches your kids something. Our son
continued to do well in public schools and he never needed to have the
expensive bling. He learned how to save and did quite well in college
earning his masters degree shortly before his 23rd birthday and had no
college debt, he contributed about half towards his college education. A
year later he was awarded his CPA license and had a good job waiting for
him when he finished college. He currently owns his own home and is on
schedule to have the mortgage paid off at the end of next year. He paid
1/3 down payment on the house from money he earned while working and
going to school. Not too bad for a 24 year old.


That is a tribute to parenting ... the highest tribute there is.
