Send us a textWorried about paying for college for your kids? Imagine if they not only had school fully paid for but graduated with a nest egg already in place. Chris shares how his Debt Free Degree Triangle makes this possible. About our guest:Chris Corinthian has worked for over 15 years in higher education in the areas of financial aid and financial literacy. After working with thousands of students, he realized that there were specific steps that students did to receive multiple scholarships and graduate debt-free. Unfortunately, there were also students who did not know this information and dropped out of school because they did not have enough money to complete college. Chris is on a mission to stop the national student loan debt from rising by showing students the blueprint to not only graduate debt-free but also show them how they can have money in the bank when they walk across that stage at graduation. Through teaching the principles of financial literacy, he walks high school students and current college students through a three-step framework on how to “find the money, budget the money, and grow the money” to pay for school.Check out Chris’s bookGet a free chapter from the bookResources mentioned:Taco Bell Live Mas ScholarshipRaise.meSchollyClep examsSupport the show---Please join me here, and follow me on social media, Instagram, and Facebook.Need help getting started on your path to financial freedom?
