2/22/23: Time To Rethink Your College Savings Strategy
from THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR FUTURE with Ric Edelman · host Ric Edelman
A couple of weeks ago I talked with you about how college is becoming free. If you want to hear that bit, the link to it is in today's show notes. Dozens of colleges and universities, as I've told you, are making college free these days for low-income families. A lot of states are now doing that, too, and not just for low-income households, but for middle class families, too. And hundreds of companies are now paying for college for their employees. It's the newest employee benefit. So I said, you really need to rethink your college planning strategy if college is going to be free. Do you still need to save for college? Well, guess what? Thanks to Congress (who loves to give freebies away to voters), yes, saving for college just might still make sense, even if you never have to pay for college, even if your kids never go to college. ----- Links from today's show: SECURE 2.0 Act of 2022 Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?
