Maybe there are some families where a parent funding their child's business is in it "strictly for the money", but I've never seen one. Why would you believe that parents who would selflessly spend $100k+ on college without expecting any personal monetary ROI wouldn't offer money on the same terms for their kid to start a business? In either case you're buying experiences and trying to create opportunities for your kid. Even from a purely educational perspective, launching a business can be far more educational than lots of college programs.
