My parents paid for my college tuition. This was also the case for many of my peers. They turned out just fine. Honestly they seem to have done better than those who took out loans purely because they don't have loans.
- WalterBright 2y agoI bet your parents didn't give you whatever you wanted for free. My parents gave me the necessities of life for free, but if I wanted more than that, I had to work for it. For example, I bought my first car at 15 from proceeds of a paper route I had for years. My parents made a deal with me that they'd pay half of my tuition, and I had to come up with the other half. By the time I was a junior, I was making enough on the side I could afford the rest myself, and phoned my parents and said don't send me any more money. It felt really really good to do that. Yes, I know that college is considerably more expensive these days.
