Financial planners are paid to market products.

They're not rewarded for how much financial aid you receive.

For example, the 529 Savings plan is one of the worst

ideas the average college family will ever implement.

529 Plans are tied to the stock market.

How do you think that's worked out for most people over the

past twenty years?

And....The 529 plan counts as an asset against you when you list all of your assets on your FAFSA form.

Even if you did have a tax benefit from the plan, you will end up giving it back.

There's many others we will dive into on today's show.

Be prepared to be shocked of what you will hear.

We're in an economy where innovation is important.

Whatever major a student chooses, they need to make sure that all of the courses develop of of their capacities.

Having one knowledge specific to a certain field is not good enough.

Begin with their passion and identify a career that resonates with the student.

Students just get frustrated when they take classes that create homework. Nobody wins in that scenario.

We want to create a culture where the student is happy and 'never works a day in their life....' Because they love what they do for a living.

It's possible.

Colleges are now being held accountable - it's about time!

You will begin to see a trend in the next 12-18 months of colleges making sure the student has a plan to finish their schooling on time.

Why?

Because they are now being held accountable and could lose their federal aid as a result.

Very interesting....

We dive into the subject on today's show.

Enjoy!
