Kerry Lutz and Dave Shutler discussed the state of student loans and the importance of avoiding them. They recommended picking a major first and then a school to avoid taking on too much debt. They also emphasized the importance of knowing the potential earnings for a chosen career path before taking on student loans. The lack of resources available to young people to understand the intricacies of student debt and the hidden costs of taking out a reverse mortgage were also discussed. The non-dischargeability of student loan debt and the potential for a recession due to the large number of people with student debt were also mentioned. The value of a college education and the earning potential of skilled trades were also explored. While college graduates make more money on average, some skilled trades can earn more than some college graduates. Various cost-effective education options for students were discussed, including community college, AP courses, and online-only schools. The benefits of these options, such as lower tuition fees and the ability to earn college credits while still in high school, were highlighted. The importance of exploring all available options to save money and still receive a quality education was emphasized. Finally, financial hacks and the importance of having proper knowledge to make financial decisions were discussed, and a book called "Graduate Debt Free" was recommended for those looking to pay for college.
