Graduation time is fast approaching for high school and college students.  Many of them are thinking how they will even afford college.  Will they be able to get help from their parents? Or,  maybe some help from the government through financial aid?  Will they need to take out loans that will come back to haunt them once they are done with school?  Be smart when choosing your educational path.  Debt can stab you over with many pains, so be very careful when planning out your education.  I can’t stress enough how thankful I am for paying my way though a state university with a part time job working nights and weekends.  If you are a high school senior, be sure to apply for all the scholarships or grants that you can.  An extra $500 -1000 from smaller or local scholarships might not seem like much, but they will add up over 4 years.

Timing is everything… I think I might be a little late in the year for this image, but nevertheless it was a subject I wanted to cover.
