The Shocking Truth About College, Careers, And Life After Student Loans with Leah Bell
 
Why in the world would an intelligent, college-educated woman work herself into a frenzy, juggling three jobs, 7-days a week, for an entire year, only to barely make ends meet?
 
Because that’s the only way you keep food on the table when you graduate college during a recession, when jobs are scarce and your student loans need to be repaid. 
 
Author of The Angry Grad, Leah Bell, shares her experience in an effort to reveal the dark side of higher education. She talks about all the deceptive tactics used in the education industry to boost enrollment, the lack of financial education in schools, and what drove her to quit her job as a school teacher to pursue entrepreneurship.
 
She and her husband have developed an online education platform that people of all ages can use to learn about entrepreneurship and alternative ways to earn a living. They both believe that true financial security is not found in relying solely on a "good" job, but diversified streams of income that allows you to choose how and where you spend your time, as well as, easily recover when the unexpected happens.
 
Her book, The Angry Grad, is available for purchase on Amazon, and would make an excellent gift for the young person in your life. Connect with her online at theangrygrad.com
