The Road to Financial Freedom Is Paved With Grit
My wife and I just... Yeah, sorry. Yeah, my wife and I just had a baby, and we've been having a discussion about opening a college account for him at 529. And my wife's on the side of saving as much as we can, enough to pay for his whole college tuition. And I'm more on the side of maybe not doing that just because, you know, for me, when I went to school, I didn't have that.

And I think it built a lot of character in myself. Um, you know, my parents, they provided a place for me to sleep. Um, you know, they, they didn't charge me any rent and, you know, they provided food for me every day. So, um, I felt like I was really blessed that in what they gave me, you know, and what they could. Um, and I felt like it, you know, it built some character in me.

I worked through school and, and it, um, you know, showed me like, you know, the value of money and how, you know, um, you know, what I'm paying for it for school. It, you know, it, it, It just shows me the value in it. I just wanted to get your guys' opinion on whether maybe there's a middle point between my wife and I or maybe you should just avoid it altogether or saving all of it that we can.
