Anyway, take a look here:http://www.finaid.wisc.edu/undergraduate-cost.htm I think that estimate is a little low especially if you live off campus. You are looking at only tuition. There are books, supplies, housing, fees and interest on the loan. If you ask for a deferment of any kind during the life of the loan or consolidate the loans the interest hits hard. Loans may or may not be inevitable for people, but as I said, they should be the very last alternative, in my opinion. It is possible to work full time and make it through school. YMMV and I applaud the OP for taking care of his daughter. I will do the same if necessary. Hopefully my son will earn some scholarships and will be willing to work for his degree. |

Lots of respect to the OP, I am fortunately on the other side of college tuition.
My son just Graduated from college, thank God, out of state tuition is a beeeeach, $150K and we did it without taking out a loan. I am proud of him for Graduating and proud of my wife and I for scraping and saving to be able to afford it. I rewarded myself with a new Camaro, lol. He needs to go to grad school , wants to be a physical therapist. but the rest is on him.

(But don't confuse my post with condemnation of higher education- I don't contest that college can be a fruitful endeavor for those who seek it.) That said... back to the originally scheduled programming...

My brother works at a dealer here in Texas. They said since the reveal of the 2014 Camaro, the only ones the dealer has sold are custom orders. They have not sold a single camaro under ZL1 trim in four months. They have around a dozen. Three ZL1s currently. If you look around the used lots, there are so many used 2010 and 2011 camaros you can really cut a deal. I went to a hole in the wall dealer this weekend and counted 8 used SS and 6 V6s. The guy even told me "If your car didn't have those green stripes, I wouldn't even look at it. Got too many."

You will buy a Camaro again. The daughter only shows up in your life once. You did the right thing.
