Did you know that 50% of college students in the US do not graduate within 6 years? 50%. The main reason for this? The financial cost. In this episode I spoke with Abby Chao, co-founder and COO for CollegeBacker. An online service that makes saving for college simple, smart, social and accessible. Her approach is a modern, tech-forward approach. Crowdfund your savings fund! I know that more people are beginning to question the relevance of university or college. The technological world is moving at such a fast pace that many large, old institutions are having a hard time keeping up. But the largest uncertainty is the huge cost and debt load that many carry because of college. In this episode Abby and I talked about her company, CollegeBacker, the importance of saving for education and how they utilize a new approach to saving- by leveraging your social network. How The Seed Was Planted Abby's interest in investing began as a teenager. She credits the Illinois Math and Science Academy. A state funded school for "math and science nerds". Abby says it allowed students to pursue their passions, collaborate and research. It was an introduction to the book Rich Dad Poor Dad from her grade 7 math teacher that first peaked her interest in finance, investing and business. But it wasn't until she worked as a social sector fellow with McKinsey & Company that her passion crossed into the education field. The sector fellow focused on k-12 education. It helped her understand public education throughout the country. She saw disparity in education. Financial disparity. Many schools across the country were not preparing kids for life after school. She saw how special her education experience had been. CollegeBacker CollegeBacker is a college savings vehicle in the US. It is a 529 fund that helps to save but also gives the tools to rally friends and family to help you. In this episode Abby talked about: Why have a savings plan for college? Flexibilities with this fund~ What happens if your child decides not to go to college? How you can leverage social networks to help save The power of belief and expectations to support kids Unique ways that families can save for post secondary no matter where you live in the world   Abby is leaving listeners with a gift. Visit collegebacker.com/honeyimhomeschooling I'd love to hear your feedback. Do you feel that post secondary is an important part of your or your child's future?

It’s impossible to deny that college is one of the biggest expenses you, your children, and even your grandchildren will ever face. To make matters worse, the costs of college tuition are still climbing rapidly, with some schools forecast to cost as much as half a million dollars to attend as soon as a decade from now. No matter how old your kids are, or if you’re planning to have children in the future, saving for this is a daunting, intimidating task. Abby Chao is the co-founder and COO of CollegeBacker - a team of college savings geeks working to democratize access to the best tools and information available to prepare financially for college and bring families together in the process. She believes in a world in which every child has a college fund and everyone knows there's a community of people that supports them achieving their dreams. She’s also seen how the burden of college debt impacts entrepreneurship, career choices, and how people live their post-college lives - and wants to change things for the better. Today, Abby joins the podcast to share the journey that led her to co-found CollegeBacker, how you can start saving for college no matter how old you (or your children or grandchildren) are, and the unique tools CollegeBacker provides to instill good habits and lighten this massive financial burden. In this podcast interview, you’ll learn: Why college tuition at all levels keeps getting higher and higher - and why you don’t need to pay for it all yourself if you plan right. The experience that Abby had as a consultant that showed her how important finance is in education - and why a lack of financial education sets major barriers for students who want to achieve their goals. What a 529 account is, why they are in many ways your best way to save for college, and why so many families are unaware of them. How CollegeBacker helps people without financial advisors get access to resources to save for college - and their innovative and unique business model. Why you still need to save, even if your child is going to qualify for scholarships, and the caution points you need to be aware of when using 529s for private elementary or high school.

The topic today is college savings. So many of you write-in asking,"Farnoosh, where should I save for my child's college education? Is a 529 still the best option?" Some even want to know about how to save for our unborn children! I get it. College is expensive today, let alone 18 or 20 years from now.    To help us tackle college savings plans, we have the co-founder and COO of CollegeBacker Abby Chao joining us. Prior to launching the company, Abby was a senior associate and social sector fellow at McKinsey & Company. What's interesting is that only 30% of Americans know what a 529 plan is. That's where CollegeBacker wants to help. It's a new company that's educating parents around it and make it easier for them to save up for their child's college costs. Their trick: involving your community of friends and family. At CollegeBacker you can open a 529 plan and invite others to contribute.  Abby and I discuss 529 pros and cons of starting an account like this. It's not a given that a 529 is the best way to save and that it's a right fit for all families. What if you save diligently into this account and your child doesn't attend college or receives a full scholarship? What happens to the money? I was pretty surprised by some of the answers. There are also some potential legislative changes to the 529 this year that may or may not expand its impact.  We talk about all of this, as well as Abby's own impressive career resume. Her "So Money" moment was when she was at work and convinced her bosses to give her a promotion and a raise...and reimbursements for graduate school!    CollegeBacker would like to offer So Money listeners a $25 match if you sign-up.
