Most college savings calculators assume you have one child.

If you have two or more kids, you're making financial decisions based on incomplete math.

Here's what almost every calculator misses: 🧵

@shawnpmiller @nate Thanks for sharing, Shawn! Hope all is well!

I built a free calculator specifically for this problem.

Enter your kids' college start years, add your accounts, and see the full year-by-year simulation — including overlap years.

Takes 2 minutes. No account needed.

The fix isn't saving more. It's modeling the overlap specifically.

You need to see your account balance year by year, including the years both kids are in school, to know whether your plan survives.

Most calculators don't show you this. They plan for one child and call it done.
