Welcome to episode 194 of Profit Boss® Radio! In this episode, we’re talking about how students can get free money. That’s right, free money! Whether you have a 6 month old child or even if you’re in your 80s, if you’re making plans for a college education, you deserve to do it debt-free. Here to discuss this topic is Rhea Watson. Rhea’s the President and Founder of Scholarship Solutions, a premier scholarship and college consulting firm.

Her work has been featured on the Today Show, in Forbes, and in Black Enterprise, to name just a few publications.
