Back in 2007, I could tell that the costs of a college education would be astronomical going forward. I earned every scholarship I could, didn’t own a cellphone, rode the bus, and worked full or part-time jobs almost the whole time.
It was rough. I escaped with $8,750 in student loan debt and considered myself lucky.
Like many parents, we’re trying to help our kids avoid debt and put them on a strong financial path.
