Does the cost of a four year college or university degree scare you? We all have been taught that a college degree is the path to the good life, but is it still – when students are emerging with heavy debt and little chance of a lucrative job?

The Frugal Girl

FEBRUARY 18, 2024

I’m 47, married, and living amongst the cornfields in a college town in the Midwest U.S. I’ve been an architect, day-care teacher to toddlers, and library clerk, but am currently a SAHM to a 14yo son and 9yo daughter. I started reading The Frugal Girl back in 2010 when Kristen’s kids were still itty bitty.

In 2010, a very close friend called me excitedly to tell me all about her first half-marathon. Running wasn't new to me; I started running (to Dairy Queen) in college and ran my first 5k in my twenties. As I planned my goals for 2012, I realized that I made only one goal for myself in 2011. If she can do it, I can do it, she told me.
