Hiya
So i had lunch with an old friend whose son has just graduated with a combined Law /Media degree...she told me his HECS debt is 55K which he will have to pay back eventually when his salary reaches a certain level....
My parents paid in full for my (and my siblings') university fees (plus board and allowance)...so we were off to a good start....
I am thinking of telling my kids they will each have a 100K budget....if they spend more, they will have to top it up themselves ...if they spend less, they will keep the difference....
I wonder what will be the fallout?
Care to comment on my strategy?
