College has long been seen as a ticket to the middle class, but does that still hold true when paying for college seems more and more out of reach for the average American family? On this episode of "Decoding Retirement," Robert “Bob” Powell speaks with Tricia Scarlata, head of education savings for J.P. Morgan Asset Management. Both being parents of college-age children, Bob and Tricia talk about the importance of saving early in tax-advantaged accounts, being realistic about financial aid, and how retirement savings are often affected by paying for your child’s education.
