Now that I’m out of school and many of my peers are drowning in debt, I’m so glad that I worked my butt off to pay for school in other ways than relying on loans. During my college career, I ensured I took a minimum of three courses at all times in order to maintain my status as a full time student.

Did you ever receive any financial education in school or from your parents?

Whether you’re continuing your education, entering the workforce or settling down with someone special (or all of the above), life insurance should be part of your plan. At 22 years old, Summer was managing her own household, working full-time and attending school with dreams of becoming a doctor. First of all, congratulations!

Did you ever receive any financial education in school or from your parents? I have a distinct memory of being taught how to create a budget and write checks in 5th grade, and because my formal education is in mechanical engineering, I’ve also been taught project budgeting & estimating. Yes to both!
