On episode 166, Alexis Avila speaks to Wayne Weber, CEO of Gift of College, a gift registry for college savings plans, helping friends and family to contribute to loved ones’ existing or newly established 529 college savings accounts or make a payment toward an existing student loan account.
Over the holiday season Toys“R”Us® became the first retail chain to offer Gift of College gift cards to shoppers at select stores across the country. On today’s episode, Wayne talks about the rising cost of college, and how his Gift of College can help you better afford college and pay off your student loan debt.
Wayne’s advice for teens
Make sure you know what you want to do and take the right steps to get there. You don’t want to get 135K degree for a low paying job. Instead consider a lower cost degree. Or spend a few years in community college to cut off some of the tuition cost.
