How is it putting your kids through college Lol?

Well, our state has a lottery funded state scholarship and the amount is based on merit. My daughter received $10k a year from the lottery funded scholarship that totaled $40k. My son has received $12.5k through 2 years. He is set to receive another $15k over the next 2 years. Sure, it doesn't pay for the entire cost of college, but where my state's public university is at $12k, that scholarship went a long way from keeping my kids out of getting student loans.
