By the time they are old enough college will be so expensive that only the rich will be able to afford it. That or the rate of student loan defaults will be so high, banks won't be able to lend out money anymore.

Currently shopping around for a new gun to spend Christmas money on. I'm thinking a nice .22lr rifle.

It's a Savage 10BA Stealth.

 
I've heard people give all sorts of reasons for not saving money for their kids' college tuition. I'm of the opposite mindset but believe everyone's entitled to do with their money as they see fit. Really, the scientist in me is looking forward to seeing how things shake out in 20 years and whether any of the saving/lack of saving really mattered. Being in debt isn't the end of the world; it's great my kids won't ever have to subsist on Top Ramen but maybe they won't be as fiscally responsible as kids who had to earn their way through college. 

(I realize Voomie's just baiting y'all but this is Random Topics so I'm randomly topicking, goddammit)

I posted that tongue in cheek. My wife and I do have a plan in place. I am alarmed at the rate tuition has been increasing and student loan default rate. I hope I am wrong but I foresee this as the next financial crisis.

I feel like I am at least mostly fiscally responsible, and my undergrad ways paid for by my guardian angels, grad by assistantshipping. so, there's hope! I know you probably didn't hope for any feedback on that, but there it is. haha.

no because tax cuts okay

 
for some ungodly reason Sweet Caroline has been adopted as the 7th inning stretch sing-a-long at Fenway Park.  Some dopes even  nominated it to be the MA state song.  I think the song (and Neil) are passe and currently way overrated.
