Getting through college without crushing debt may seem like an insurmountable task. But it does not have to be. What if you encouraged your child to spend their time applying for scholarships instead of mowing lawns, working at a fast-food joint, or babysitting? The payoff could be 10 fold or even more. But how would that work? That's what our guest, Jocelyn Pearson, is going to tell you. It's pretty amazing. Instead of a summer job earning maybe $4,000 if they are lucky, imagine your kids spending that time learning life skills and getting through college debt-free, basically earning exponentially more per hour for their efforts. It is not impossible, and it's got nothing to do with test scores. Our guest, Jocelyn Pearson founded The Scholarship System to share her own experience of graduating from college debt-free. When college looked unaffordable for her, she sprang into action and secured over $126,000 in college scholarships, even receiving an overage check each semester for her expenses. It wasn't an easy process. It took her years to figure out exactly what to do to be selected for these scholarships. Now, she helps families learn how they can do this themselves. By teaching her six-step system, she has helped families secure multiple millions in scholarships and it just keeps growing. what you will learn in this episode: How to get through college without debt Understanding the two sides of a debt-free degree Why having a system is so important for avoiding college debt How your kids can get debt-free education without sacrificing your financial future The “4 Cs” to a debt-free degree Why finding scholarships is just one piece of a debt-free degree strategy How to think differently about earning for college Common myths about who can qualify for scholarships How to keep up the scholarship application process through college

An Interview with the founder of The Scholarship System, Jocelyn Pearson

Imagine leaving college, having lived abroad for a semester, studied, played and had as many experiences as you wanted, and owing not one red cent! Scholarship Expert and debt free professional, Jocelyn Pearson of The Scholarship System shares her story and financial story.

Jocelyn Paonita Pearson talks about self-publishing an Amazon Best-Seller, The Scholarship System, turning that best seller into an online course and live workshops, and why she gave up climbing the corporate ladder on this episode of Tiebreakers.

Jocelyn Pearson graduated from college and started working a corporate job full time. She began her mornings working on her book The Scholarship System and then headed off to her nine to five job. After planning in advance, crunching numbers, and receiving a little help from her passive income streams, Jocelyn was able to leave the corporate world and enter her own world. Now, Jocelyn is focusing on helping people face the financial burdens of school with her book and enjoying the newly found freedom of working on her own time. Jocelyn’s Fresh Financing Topics -Jocelyn’s experience with a full-ride in college and how she began saving her money -Advice on how to schedule a routine -The passive income streams that helped her leave her corporate job -Tips on how to save money on your wedding -Why having an “accountability partner” is important to save money -Strategies on how to be your own boss -Resources she uses to spend less Securing Success Jocelyn’s Way “If someone told me my junior year of college that I would be leaving my job in a few years to do my own thing, I would’ve thought they were crazy.” “If the job is a bridge job, and it’s actually connecting you from A to B, and it’s helping get you to where you want to go, then there is nothing wrong in staying with it.” “I sat down and crunched numbers. You know me, I’m all about the numbers. I tried to figure out if I really had a year to 18 months of [a] nest where I could survive if I didn’t have any income.” “Between my rental income and my book, I am pretty much covering my own rent, my car expenses and groceries. So, my main living expenses have officially been covered and I have only been three months out of a job. ” “Sure, I am making a lot less money than when I was in a corporate job, but I am making enough. It’s that ‘new rich’ mentality where I don’t want to be a mega millionaire, but I do want time freedom, and ability to travel. That is the financial goal I am trying to get to, and these things help me get there.” “I would allow myself one or two major shopping sprees a year, where I had a set dollar amount. So I did treat myself, and I did get a new wardrobe, but because I did it in one big day, and I had this set amount. I think in the end I saved way more.” “Do a quick budget. All you have to do is write down rent or mortgage, the major expenses, and keep it to ten. That first step of looking at what you think you are spending, can be a great first step.” “You should be saving a good 10-20 percent of your income. I know that’s a lot, but if you can set that at the top [of your budget plan] as one of your categories, and put savings. Count that as one of your expenses because that is going to help you quit your job, if you are in a job you don’t want to stay in, or do the traveling you want to do.” “It’s hard when you are not bringing in income to sit down and spend a whole day planning because you want to just focus on items that are bringing in revenue all the time, but having that overall picture is so important.” “You don’t have to cut back on living.”   [Connect with Jocelyn  Facebook, www.thescholarshipsystem.com Email:thescholarshipsystem@gmail.com]   RESOURCES: AirBnB Dave Ramsey Every Dollar app Mint.com (money manager) The 4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss Launch by Jeff Walker Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
