    The student loan crisis is impacting you, your friends, your kids and our economy. College is more expensive than ever and you’re being told, “Student loans are good debt,” “You can’t go to college without debt,” and, “It will be worth it.” These lies have duped the average college student into taking out $35,000 in student loans. In episode 1, you’ll hear from Dave Ramsey, Anthony ONeal, Rachel Cruze, Michael Torpey, Seth Frotman and others on the reality of the student loan debt crisis.

    Ep 2: Is College Even Worth It?
    Oct 7 2019
    Is your college degree really worth $35,000 in student loan debt? Students have been told college is the best next step, but for many, it’s the wrong next step. It turns out the ROI on a degree in puppetry might not repay your student loans. And how much of this about status? Is the student loan crisis actually a parenting crisis? In this episode you’ll hear from thought leaders like Seth Godin, Rachel Cruze, Anthony ONeal, Dave Ramsey, Ken Coleman, and Dr. Meg Meeker.  BorrowedFuture.com http://bit.ly/2BwX2Mv “Debt Free Degree” Book http://bit.ly/31yOMXb Splash Financial http://bit.ly/2B9rX1b Have you been impacted by student loans, or have you received a debt-free degree? Send your story to story@borrowedfuture.com or call 629.235.0235 and leave a voicemail!

    Ep 3: What College Should You Go To? Avoiding the Traps of Higher Education
    Oct 14 2019
    Are we lying to kids when we tell them they have to go to college to be successful? College is not for everyone and some people would be happier working jobs that don’t require a degree. College choices are often based on marketing that preys on emotions, causing students to pick a campus with a lazy river over the one they can actually afford. But when you pick a college for the wrong reasons and take out student loans to do it, you can be screwed. In this episode you’ll hear from thought leaders like Mike Rowe, Seth Godin, Mark Cuban, Dave Ramsey, Rachel Cruze, Anthony ONeal and more on how college FOMO is real—and dangerous.

    When it comes to the student loan debt crisis, there’s a lot of blame to go around.
