今天读报纸,说英国皇家医学院对外国学生收费标准是,一年15万英镑。我当时就发愁了,跟劳工商量,要是儿子以后比较出息,成绩非常好,又希望去读英国的医科,60万镑啊,120万美圆啊!我到哪里去弄?

Indeed it is a lot of money. Besides university education, there will at least the following expenses:
[b
]
Son’s age Item US$ Comments 5 piano $20,000 Kawai or Yamaha grand
piano lessons $5,000 per year $50,000 for 10 years
swimming lessons $4,000 per year or other lessons. $40,000 for 10 years
…
9 piano upgrade $70,000 upgrade to a Steinway grand
cell phone $1,000 per year $10,000 for 10 years
…
16 first car $20,000 a mid-sized car for him
Entertainment $3,000 per year $10,000 for the next 3-4 years
Total BEFORE going to university: US$220,000
Here is what I would do if I were you:
1. Keep writing one or two best-selling novels for TV series;
2. Start an education savings fund for your son, starting right now if not already started;
3. If money still falls short of needs, start fund raising at your blog – let your fans chip in.
If only 5,000 of your fans respond, with average of US$1,000 each, it will be US$5M total.
You probably will find that it is not as difficult as you initially thought to provide for your son.
