Nice problem to have, right? $4,000+ to spend on my education, this year, but...

well, we do have tasers. No, jk. It's his school, so he does it. If he likes living here, he has to do school. It's my law. He is motivated by being DONE, which is easy with SL. I avoided SL for that reason in high school because I thought my oldest didn't learn as much using them, but then the pragmatic part of my brain kicked in and I told him for his last semester he could probably rock out the full associates (adding to his dual enrollment) through SL because it's a pretty easy option. Ctrl + F is your friend. Anyway, he loves it.

 

Slobodon,

If that $4,000 is available through your company then earn some credits in something that will benefir both you and your company.

If you have the $4,000 in cash I would first pay down any credit card debt, and if you have bone buy US Treaury Series I savings bonds (current interest is 2.76% which is not very great but far better than what banks and S&Ls pay.

Also, as I recall employee tuition assistance is taxable income unless related to you job. Do not ignore tax benefits for education from the IRS.

 

Simply incredible, all while still making time for the ever-important cars and girls

Does this happen to be your son?
