Episode 231 - Smarter College Planning for Wealth-Conscious Families with Paul CompeauIn light of the national student loan crisis, parents and students continue to struggle with college choice and financial aid to avoid an unaffordable student debt load upon graduation. I have dedicated several episodes to guests who help people with that.

One balancing act parents go through is educating their children while still saving and investing for a comfortable retirement. That's why in this episode of the podcast I talk with Certified Financial Planner Paul Compeau about how to do just that.

In this episode you will learn:

    • What happens when families pick a college without a solid financial plan
    • What financial facts should parents know before the applications start
    • Are high school guidance counsellors or the financial aid office of their top picks enough
    • Why you should approach college planning like a CFO
    • Should you always fill out the FAFSA
