Episode description

From 1987-2017 the cost of college education has increased 212% while wages have been fairly static. Student loans are an increasing burden for more people later in life than ever before in history.

Companies are starting to realize that a college degree doesn’t always equal more competence, and they’re more open to hiring and training the right people without a college degree. What could this mean for your financial future?
