My oldest daughter went to college on academic scholarship, with a living stipend. She lived at home for most of college. When she moved out with the intent of going to law school, she was able to pay her living expenses. We made sure she had furniture, household goods, etc. We gave her a used car, paid her car insurance, cell phone, health insurance. She didn’t go to law school, but travelled for awhile before starting grad school, and during the interim we paid for the storage of her possessions. She’s in grad school, and we still pay car insurance, cell phone, health insurance, and occasionally, clothing, because I want to. She manages her expenses pretty well, and lives well within her budget. She pays her tuition and living expenses from loans and working.
My younger daughter is not academically gifted, and is attending a state university and living on campus. We are paying her tuition, living expenses, gave her a used car, and pay her cell phone and insurance.
We don’t make a lot of money, but we live modestly and are still in the same house we bought after we married.
