Did you know that over 50% of students regret going to their university and over 25% transfer schools at least once? Yea, a lot of that is because students don't have much to go off of when choosing their college out of high school. It's a lot of pamphlets and biased marketing and not a lot of real information out there.

We know we need to invest, but when do we start?
Katie Perry and Justin share some of the resources that helped them get to where they are today in investing.
Introducing Public.com the best app to get started with investing. They have all of the features that the other guys have in the investing space, but the biggest difference is there is a social side. You can see what stocks are in people's profiles and when they are making trades. If you want to get a piece of the investing pie, sign up now using this link: https://bit.ly/DCxPublic and get $10 of a piece of a stock.

Books we shared:
Money: Master The Game by Tony Robbins
The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing by Taylor Larimore, Mel Lindauer, Michael Leboeuf
The democratization of investing = lowering the barrier of entry to investing.
Before companies like Public.com were a thing, you would need about $10,000 to start investing and you would pay $7 to make a trade. With 69% of the US adult population having less than $1,000 in their savings account, for college students investing was pretty much impossible.

Prepare yourself for to study... a lot of studying to say the least.
The GRE, GMAT, LSAT, and MCAT are huge factors in the admissions process and if you want to get into a good school, you better get a high score.
High scores = getting into a top school = typically a higher salary than if you graduate from an "average" school.
That's just the facts.
I brought Mike Bergin and Amy Seely (the co-hosts of the Tests and the Rest podcast) on to share their insights into how to best prepare for these exams!
Just like how undergrad has SATs and ACTs, for graduate school you have MCATs, LSATs, GMATs, and GREs.
You will hear from Mike Bergin, host of the Tests and the Rests podcast, Founder of Chariot Learning, about what each of these exams consists of.
