About this episode

Phil Black discusses a deceptive accounting trick used by colleges and reasons to consider expensive colleges.

In today’s episode, I reveal a sneaky accounting trick that some colleges use to avoid entering the $100K/yr club. Please give this episode a listen if your child is considering a private, liberal arts college, or a flagship state college/university in a different state. Also, I offer 5 reasons why it still might be a reasonable idea to consider a college that charges $100K+ per year.
