Now, more than ever, funding a college education has become more of a <em><u>retirement funding</u> </em>problem. Think about this...How old will you be when your youngest child graduates from college? Now, how many more years will be left for you to save before you reach your retirement age? Most parents have experienced the difficulty of trying to save for college costs and funding retirement goals at the same time. The competition between these two objectives is great. Since the college years usually arrive first, retirement funds are often raided to pay for college costs. How then will you provide for your own retirement years? </font></p> <p><font size="3">You may think that planning for 10-20 years down the road is a daunting task. It doesn't have to be. The earlier you put a plan into place, the sooner you'll be able to take advantage of economic opportunities you may have been missing. You can make college a reality for your children and retain more of your own money for your retirement. </font></p> <p><font size="3">College Funding Strategies, Inc. was founded in 1999 to help parents of college bound students navigate through the complex issues of financing a college education without sabotaging their retirement goals. <br /> <br /> Please use our Web site as a resource, and do not hesitate to </font><a href="/contact_form.cfm"><strong><font size="3">contact us </font></strong></a><font size="4"><font size="3">for additional information or to schedule a meeting.
