Hopefully not.
I know some people, I had a friend in high school whose parents wouldn't pay for any college at all unless they became an accountant.
And I felt very bad for them.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, I went to some like hippy-dippy liberal arts school and just have a million dollars in loans.
But hey, worked out okay for me.
I loved every minute.
Yeah.
OK, one short and sweet comment.
Don't let it hamstring your retirement.
That's what I think is missing from the situation, too, is we don't know how much they're actually saving.
It seems like the poster has a decent amount of money, but that's just a huge consideration as well.
Like you were saying, you need to look out for yourself so that you can have your funded retirement and not just be so hung up on what's happening to your kids, which, of course, is important.
Yeah.
And one last thing I'll leave OP with if they ever listen to or see this on YouTube is to talk with a financial advisor.
If you have $70,000 in a 529 and your kid is three years and three months old,
You're doing pretty well.
You can probably pay for at least one consultation to get some projections about where your retirement savings are going, where they will be in the future.
Same with the 529.
Just get a plan.
