When I was young, I received a chessboard as a present. No one in my family knew how
to play. There was no internet to search. All these pieces and I had no clue.
Do you feel like that when it comes to paying for college?
You need to know how the board is designed, what the rules are, and who the players are.
Most important you need a winning strategy. You don’t need to be a chess master, but
you do need someone to hold your hand throughout the college years and beyond.
You need someone who knows how the game is played.
Bob and his team believe in eliminating the stress and anxiety when it comes to paying for
college. You do not want to make a $250,000 mistake that will impact the rest
of your financial future. The system we use is educational in nature designed
to help individuals and families understand the critical steps of paying for
college. The system takes a “begin with the end in mind” approach. This is the
basis for smart, effective, and efficient planning.
The solution to building a customized pay for college strategy successfully is not
from a financial product, a rate of return, a single strategy, or a financial
plan. It is a complete economic process that requires five key elements:

1. Knowing the impact of a 20% gifting school and a 90% gifting school
2. Lowering your Expected Family Contribution by becoming FAFSA friendly
3. Accessing Micro-Scholarships as early as the 9th grade
4. Not being part of the $1.8 trillion dollars in student debt
5. Tools and ideas for the student to be career-ready
