Rethinking Education and Your Life, With Grant Aldrich

Filed in Podcasts, Previous Episodes on June 2, 2020

University and college education can still too expensive and unapproachable for the majority of people throughout the country. Normal distractions of work, bills, and home life, often prevent someone from getting started with education or being able to dedicate time and money to a traditional 4-year degree program.

Student debt has now reached a level of epic proportions.  At $1.34 Trillion in the United States alone, it’s larger than both auto and credit card debt.  It places a crushing burden on young learners, and often prevents working adults from getting the modern skills and education they need to improve their livelihood.

  • And much more!
