    Sure, if you make an imaginary person who pushes their kid to college while also not trusting the institution.

      My mom made me start saving for college when I was in elementary school, taking anything I got from gifts and chores to put into my college fund. I mowed lawns before I was legally able to work, then got a job as soon as I was able, all to continue padding my fund. I got my bachelor’s then my master’s in biology. My mom died a few months ago because she didn’t believe me or the doctors that her holistic medicine herbal teas wouldn’t cure her cancer.
