RE: How were you able to cater to your children's education?

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Hello @iskafan. A very useful topic of how we'll educate our children. I've known so many friends and acquaintances that have never taken this path. So, when the time comes for school costs, they're left scratching their heads trying to figure out what to do.

It's too late by the time the child needs the funds to start thinking about it. Planning for years is needed for each child. This is exactly what we did for all children. And it has to start before or as soon as possible when the child is born. People often say to me that they've got plenty of time. It goes by so quickly just living and taking care of their daily, monthly, and yearly needs. It's a sad situation to witness when the child desires to further his education, but the funding is not there. Who can look to for financial planning of their own, when they haven't been taught responsibilities like this for when they have children?

Thanks for sharing this most important topic. Take care, and have a good start to your week.

I know you are an avid preached of planning. I think I read one of your posts once where you discussed death. And you mentioned the family had no plans for such events in their lives. And the children were left to scamper around trying to find funds to walk through the burial processes. And then the question arise, "how will they survive after this"? Seeing that their parents never made any financial plans for them before their demise. I hope that I am correct that I read this on your blog.

Yep, this confirms that you were the one who wrote that post. I remember you said a phrase like this too.

I am glad to know that you planned for all of your children too.

I know what my colleagues faced in school as a result of lack of funds. Most times, it makes them pay less attention to their education because they are always trying to do one hard job after another in a bit to raise money for their schooling.

Thank you very much for reading @justclickindiva. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences on this too.

Yes, that was me. Ever preaching planning to at least make life a bit easier in the long run.
