Sometimes in order to understand why a topic is important to someone, you have to hear their story. That’s why in this new episode our hosts and special guest talk about their own personal education journeys. In addition to personal stories, they also have some big takeaways from the education series about paying for college and paths of education.

Many of us are lifelong students. Constantly learning new things through traditional and non-traditional channels of education. However you choose to learn, do your best and be passionate.

Check out the newest episode of Wallet Watch, brought to you by MSU Federal Credit Union/OU Credit Union, to hear our personal stories and things we’ve learned about education during this series. If you would like transcripts for this episode or any of our episodes, email us at [email protected] Transcripts offer an excellent way to have a copy of the tips and topics we cover in each episode.

Also, we have a raffle!* All you have to do is tag three of your friends under a podcast-related post on any of our Financial 4.0 social media outlets to be entered into the drawing.
