Every once in a while, you reach a milestone in your financial journey that doesn’t just feel good—it feels right.
Here’s mine: None of my children have student debt. Not a single one. Not now, not looming around the corner. They’ve each walked into adulthood on their own terms, without the weight of tuition bills and loan balances chained to their ankles. I couldn’t be more proud.
Now, I know not everyone in the BAD community has cheered this decision. (And I promise, I see your point especially with my crazy rollercoaster of a job history the last several years.) Some have questioned my choice to financially support my kids through their post-high school education paths. I’ve seen the side-eyes, the subtle digs, the “they are going to have to support you!” And to all of that, I say: I hear you. But I also stand by my choice 100%.
