We have to do some of those big financial "no-no's" that the experts warn against (don't take out loans, don't pay with credit, etc), but there is just not a better option, other than quitting school and getting back on the minimum pay treadmill and hope that I can save the money for school someday. I reason that the ends will justify the means.Beauty in the Macabrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08529670118275490782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30526268.post-19463858366053851602011-08-24T02:22:48.118-07:002011-08-24T02:22:48.118-07:00Good post you have shared here, interesting one.

But i heard now a days some universities and colleges offering useful scholarship offer for their academic students i think this option really helpful for reducing their academic cost but i don't know more about the scholarships. Do you know any information about scholarships for international high school students? If you know any helpful information, please let me know.Robert Martinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30526268.post-41352788861082555612011-08-22T08:54:48.910-07:002011-08-22T08:54:48.910-07:00I can certainly relate.

I don't regret going back to school at all, but I DO understand that it has gotten very expensive to do that. <br /><br />Thanks for your comments, Nicki!Betsyanne (E Sheppard)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06928905839606136933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30526268.post-18307002467068291782011-08-22T08:52:28.117-07:002011-08-22T08:52:28.117-07:00We have used a credit card often over the past 5 y...We have used a credit card often over the past 5 years to pay for the costs. Mostly during the times when I get the email that says, "You are about to be dropped for non-payment. Pay us now or die!" We also pay for books with credit cards sometimes. Often, I can pay with my hubbies checking account but not VERY often! Mainly, I just get loans and pray that I DO get that job to pay it all off someday before I die!Nickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13877564312244508811noreply@blogger.com
