 We’ll be discussing the first two mistakes; not adequately exploring debt alternatives and taking on too much debt. You’ll meet Zarai Aquino who found a way to avoid debt  altogether and her sister, Betsey Ramos who didn’t. 

We’ll end our discussion with our financial expert, Joe Flinner of Landing Point Financial Group who discusses general loan payment guidelines experts recommend students can typically take on after they graduate from college.
