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?

My own sister-in-law paid for travel to Hawaii by charging her son’s college tuition (this option, by the way, is no longer available with her card company). When I worked for TWA, and traveled a lot on business, I signed up for every airline and hotel rewards card available. Sure, I have heard the stories.

Tip: avoid airline luggage fees by shipping boxes at a local Office Depot store any day of the week. College kids can still browse the virtual Office Depot College Catalog to find everything from dorm essentials, supplies and furniture to some special coupons and deals! Forgot something at home or need supplies for a new class?

One of the well know perks of airline employment is the ability to fly free. Of course I signed up with each airline and hotel for points. College classes – reimbursed by the company. This included a consult as well. Free first class flight to England. I worked for TWA prior to it’s demise. Free 3 Star Hotel Rooms.

In January of 2020, we made summer plans (and bought airline tickets) to go see friends who moved to Europe. Start college funds for our two girls. During our debt payoff mode, we camped and went on beach trips with extended family, but never left the country…honestly, we never left the east coast. Pay Off Mortgage Debt.
