Avoid the Student-Loan Debt Trap

Some times straight forward common sense advice is worth repeating.  Often times over and over again.

I came across this Kiplinger article which usually pumps out common sense investing and straight forward financial advice.

Ways to avoid heavy uses of student load debt:

• Double down on savings
• Pick a school you can afford, seems like an obvious point but you would be surprised
• Go a different route, see this WSJ article
• Know what you are getting into
• If you must borrow, use federal loans
