It is shocking to see the price tags at places like Notre Dame. Not that I didn't know generally how expensive it would be. I just hadn't been paying really close attention recently.

That being said, there are some bargains out there where kids can get a very good education at a reasonable price. I've always said that we wouldn't spend hundreds of thousands of our own money for our kid's college education. The ROI just isn't there.

I don't believe illusions because too much is for real.
