What do I need to learn how to do before moving out and living on my own?
I wasn't taught a whole lot at school about what living on your own entails, and now the time has come where I am becoming an adult and have started preparing for my future. I have yet to learn how credit works, as well as interests and loans. I dont know how to do my own taxes or what investing looks like. I want to know where I would learn these things, and what the hardest/most important aspect of living on your own is to keep in mind. #money #taxes #debt #student #student-loans #interest #credit #livingathome #independently-funding-my-education
Is spending 8 years learning really worth becoming a doctor?
Right now, I'm a sophomore in high school and very often people ask me who I want to be after college. My response had usually been a doctor, but after doing some research about the job, I understand that becoming an actual doctor is a very rocky step. I feel like a lot of time is needed, as well as a lot of financial resources to finish college and then medical school. As well, I understand that after med school I will need to spend another 2-4 years as an intern and then possibly more to specialize in something. So, I'm just wondering whether in the end it will be worth it, because if I do choose this path I feel like the next 12, or so years of my life I will be a student and possibly not earning enough to adequately support myself and pay the school debts. #doctor #medical-school #student-loans #learning #debt #expenses

How bad is Debt to an Anesthesiologist?
I'm planning to pursue a career in anesthesiology(completing medical school, residency, licensed) and wondering how hard will it be to pay off any student debt. I hear that student debt should be avoided and is heavily stressed to be a heavy load on future decisions. However, certain professions make it easier to pay off student debts, right? In the case of anyone completing their 4 years in residency and getting their license, is student debt worth it for a practicing anesthesiologist? #student-loans #debt #anesthesiology #salary
How much student loans can I take with a mechanical engineering starting salary
I am a mechanical engineering sophomore and I recently learned my parent can only contribute about 5% of my college finances. What is an affordable, realistic amount I can take out in student loans so I don't drown in student debt? For more information, I live in New Jersey and my dream job would be located in the New York City area. Thanks. #debt #student-debt #scared #money #loans #financial-aid #engineer #engineering #mechanical-engineering
What are other ways to pay for medical school besides loans and scholarships?
Medical school is expensive, as everyone knows. And paying off loans will increase the amount of stress for a medical student to go through. Are there ways to earn some cash to pay off the debt and to avoid getting loans for medical school? Scholarships can be limited as well. #medicine #money-management #finance #debtfree #student-debt #debt

Can anyone advise me on how to graduate college as an RN and do so debt free?
Looking towards the future is always important. I have to have goals in place to motivate me and give me direction in my life. I was raised by a single mother and Financial responsibilities can consume and control you. I want to start a nursing career someday and help others, and how is anyone to do so if they are struggling so much with themselves? #registered-nurses #nurse-practitioner #nursing #nurse #college #debt
What is the best route for me to take to achieve my goals and reach my full potential?
I really want to go into medicine but worry about the cost of school and I do NOT want to graduate with hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans. I also don't know how to choose my under grad school and worry that if I don't pick the right school it will be harder to get into med or vet school. Is there a way to look online at what classes/schools are recognized by medical schools? #choosing-a-college #medschool #vetschool ##howtodecide #veterinary #medicine #healthcare #doctor #vet #college #debt #loans #financial-aid
How do I find a good apartment to rent near my college?
I live in California currently and I need to apply for renting a place in New York because that's where my college is. It is super difficult looking for places when I can't really be there in person at the moment. I need to rent because the room and board at my college is super expensive and it would put my family $20,000 in debt.

Does the expense of your undergraduate college affect your ability to perform well in graduate school and your field?
I'm trying to decide between public and private colleges, and I would like to know if the "really good" schools (and all of their costs and debt) are actually necessary to my success. I'm a good student, so I could get into most colleges, but I don't know if spending tens of thousands of dollars more to go to a certain school will be worth it. #money #debt
Does it help to start off in a career that pays well, rather than searching for your dream job?
I know college results in debt, so I was wondering: in the long run would it be worth it to find a job in a subject you like(but aren't overly fond of) and use that to become more financially stable, then find a career you are very passionate about? #finance #debt #multiple-interests
