How We Sent Four Children to College on One Income

My husband and I did something really smart 30 years ago when our children were little.  We were offered an opportunity to set up a side project which created an additional income stream. We have been forever grateful to the people who not only introduced us to the concept but stuck around to help us implement it.  With the additional income I was able to make a choice about working outside the home or raising children full time and I chose to stay at home.  We have also been able to send all four children to the school of their choice with the help of scholarships however, none of them got a free ride so we were able to make up the difference.

I am throwing it out to all of you, my readers, because I know that there are many of you that worry about where it’s all going to come from, especially if your children want to go to college.
