“The best kept secret in America”
Funding your children’s education is no small task. It will probably represent the largest liability (outside of a home) that you will incur in your lifetime. Currently the average annual college tuition expense is $15,000 for public school, $30,000 for private school, and $45,000 for elite private schools. But these are after tax dollars. Assuming a 35% tax rate, you will need to earn $100,000 for four years of public school, $200,000 for private school and $300,000 for elite private schools.—PER CHILD. Furthermore, the inflation rate for college tuition has been running double to triple the Consumer Price Index inflation rate.
