In today's episode, we hear from Sarah Long. Sarah had a good introduction to money growing up but needed to fund her last year of undergrad and graduate school with student loans. She started out as a trained opera singer and quickly realized this was not a long-term career she enjoyed. She then entered a master's program which allowed her to break into IT Consultanting. During this time, she got married and combined income, and debt, with her husband. They also moved to a high cost of living area.
Sarah details how she managed her time in college while working a part-time job, how she budgeted for her wedding, and how she and her husband paid off $90,000 worth of debt. She also talks about how to decide if graduate school is necessary to switch careers and tips for saving and building credit.
This episode is jam-packed with great information!
