For decades, college was considered the ultimate launching pad—your ticket to a good job, a stable life, and financial freedom. But today, that path feels a whole lot blurrier.
In this episode, Jean sits down with leading financial expert Ric Edelman, whose new book The Truth About College pulls back the curtain on what higher education really delivers—and where it falls short.
Together, they dive into:
- When college still makes financial sense—and when it really doesn’t
- How families can make smarter decisions together
- Why trade schools, gap years, and community college deserve a second look
- The emotional toll of student debt (and what parents often miss)
- How adults can tap into lifelong learning without breaking the bank
