I think some of the things we did may work even today. First, we had a lot of support from our family. Wife's parents lived in the same city and were very happy to babysit their granddaughter so we could work. I worked about 35 hours per week and carried 15 to 18 credit hour class load (sleep is overrated). My wife deferred her education and worked 40+ hour per week. We had near-minimum wage jobs (we were recent high school grads). We drove an old car and lived in the cheapest student apartment we could find.Response by Lt Col Jim Coe made Oct 22 at 2017 12:29 PM2017-10-22T12:29:10-04:002017-10-22T12:29:10-04:00SSG Private RallyPoint Member3756414<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have the same situationResponse by SSG Private RallyPoint Member made Jun 30 at 2018 3:00 PM2018-06-30T15:00:58-04:002018-06-30T15:00:58-04:002017-10-22T12:00:13-04:00
