Summary
When it comes to saving and choosing a college with our kids, there are several variables that can seem overwhelming. Many of us don't know where to start, and our kids are looking to us to guide them and lead them through this transition. Today, my guest shares many insights on choosing the right college, ways to save for tuition early and how we can be armed with the best information possible to make the right decisions.
Robert Farrington is America's Millennial Money Expert® and America's Student Loan Debt Expert™. He is also the founder of The College Investor, an organization focused on helping millennials get out of student loan debt and start building real wealth for their future.
This project was born out of Robert's own experience, it all started with a blog and he realized the important role of student loan debt. This led him to write his first eBook, Student Loan Debt: Getting in Smart, Getting out Painlessly.
Through years of experience, he has been able to help others, thanks to the conclusion that developing multiple streams of income - investing, the side hustling, and more - are the key to building real wealth.

| 0:28.4 | creates leaders of men, leaders of families, and leaders of communities. We will not only impact |
| 0:34.5 | this generation of fathers, but the next generation as well. The kids we are raising will have better |
| 0:40.3 | chances and odds stacked in their favor because of the amazing example that their fathers emulated |
