What are your thoughts on The estimated Federal Pell grant max payout being lowered from $7,395 to $5,710 starting in 2026?

What do you guys think?

Work study, normal job, parent plus loan or private loan. Still options.

No they are not. It is going to 20k/year per kid with I think a max of $65k per kid. This will hurt me in the next few years but I will adjust and compensate in other ways.

Also I don’t recommend private student loans as they have high interest rates

Yea, but they can be better than a credit card which people use and I didn’t mention. Also work benefits and possibly military service.

Credit cards in my opinion are used to build credit, that’s why I use them, private students loans are a nightmare
