      I always planned that if I ever had children that I'll do the same thing! Open an account for each kid I had and every month I'll put money in it (even if it's 100 dollars each month) until the day they turned 18. It would be so helpful for them and also for me (if I did have children that is 😂)

      @icyolives 5 ปีที่แล้ว +43

      Big Red it’s possible. You can start building credit at 18. It’s also possible she was added as an authorized user on her parents’ credit cards, in which case she’d inherent those cards’ histories and they’d count in her credit score. In either case, it’s definitely possible. I’m 24 and my score is close to that.

    Can’t fault her parents for being smart with their own money and having the ability to pay for her college. Although people are saying she’s lucky to have a head start after college with no student loan debt, she is doing a great job at maintaining a sense of frugality at a young age while growing her own wealth. I mean, she could’ve gone a very different way after college as a young woman in the big city on her own, but it appears she has a good head on her shoulders and can enjoy life while keeping a careful eye on her future.

      leannarosep thank you for this comment!! Others need to be happy for people who are thriving instead of going the envious, fear-based route by being negative about it. She acknowledged she was privileged to have her school paid for and that’s good. At 24 she’s already at a great place and by 30 she could be doing extremely well for herself if she keeps it up!

      true. To some extent, I'll have to play it by ear. I think if I want them to value smart money practices, I'll have to create ways for them to put these values into practice and, of course, make sure that I'm setting the right example for them.

      My parents also paid for my tuition out of pocket and are currently paying my brother's. They struggled to finish school as working students before migrating to the US.
      I rarely received allowance because they really instilled in me that, all that I have is a privilege. I was taught to shop frugally, think before buying and that there is ALWAYS another option to material goods. I wanted to get a job when I started college and my parents gave me an ultimatum. They didn't want to see me struggle in life with debt like they have, so if I promised to finish school and contribute in whatever way I can, they would pay for college. So I did just that without complaint. I figured, all the stuff I wanted to buy or places I want to go to, I can do later.

    I like how she stated that her parents paid for her college and that gave her a clean slate. Unfortunately every one doesn't have parents to help them like that or even parents that can teach them to be financially responsible. It's never too late to change and set goals for yourself once you realize your mistakes.

    “The key to trading success is emotional discipline.

      Avery Cee are you white or are you Asian? Those are the only two demographics without racial scholarships. As for me, I’m Asian, male and did not qualify for fafsa (DACA at the time.) but still got 30k/year to go to a private engineering/Archie school. Granted I still have to pay around 8k per year, it was still cheaper than going to a state school. During the time, I held down multiple part time jobs and my mother helped pay for the first 2 years of my school and part of the next year and half (I paid for the final year I took.)
      Now then, if you can’t get scholarship, it just meant that you didn’t try to apply for enough scholarships or your test scores were too low. If that’s the case and you’re poor, you will qualify for fafsa and state schools would be nearly free.
