Is money. I know because I have three kids going to college next fall. It used to be that parents paid for the college expenses. Times have changed though. In the past 60% of parents paid for college, that has decreased to 50% presently.

So how does a kid help pay for college? They can get a job, they can do work study, or they can take out loans.

I have another option for your college student. Have them round up all of their friends and have them have their friends sign up for Amazon’s student referral bonus and they will get 10$ a piece for each referral. Check out the ad below and yes I do get a small commission if they sign up through my blog and I do appreciate that.
