Linda’s Answer

There are a few options that may change over the next couple of years. One government opportunity includes the Air Force; I was told you would enter as an officer. Nonprofit health systems often provide assistance with loan repayment. Many years ago, there were not many options, and my loan interest rate was 6%. I bought a house with rentals, had a roommate, and worked side jobs for extra money. I chose not to spend money on food and drinks that I could make at home. My choices were not sacrifices; they were required to achieve my dream of being a PT and achieving financial independence with many career options. My PT degree is still one of the best choices I've ever made. You got this!
