Podcasts, Podcasts and More!
I've had a blast being a guest on a few podcasts recently:
On The Money Mindset Podcast, host Ashley Patrick and I talked about balancing college savings and funding with a family's other financial responsibilities, best practices in borrowing for college, and so much more.
On Pumped Up Parenting, host Celia Kibler and I talked financial aid, the FAFSA, and the many great pathways out there for students to get great educations that prepare them for adulthood.
My other big news is my book, How to Pay for College, comes out next month! How to Pay for College walks you through the steps to create a complete financial plan for your child's education, including worksheets and checklists to help you implement the plan. Topics include:
