In this solo episode, Darrin takes listeners on a financial journey through the entire education system, from Montessori and Pre-K tuition to college and graduate school debt.
Drawing on real-life examples from families, students, and his own experience, he highlights how education—at every level—has become a major financial investment. Darrin gives parents and students a clear-eyed look at the long-term costs of schooling, breaks down how those expenses affect working families, and offers practical advice for anyone trying to plan ahead.
Along the way, he talks about saving strategies (like 529 accounts), alternative paths (like trade schools), and how to avoid the emotional and financial pressure of "doing it the traditional way."
This is the episode that parents wish they’d heard before enrolling—and students need to hear before signing that next loan.
