296: Earning a Debt-Free Degree with Anthony O’Neal

Author of Debt-Free Degree

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that my guest on this episode of the podcast has probably been told at least a few times that his views just might border on the extreme.

After all, he’s not only suggesting the idea of college without loans, he actually encourages you to pay cash.

Anthony O'Neal

His name is Anthony O’Neal, and he’s the latest in a line of Ramsey Solutions personalities.

His brand new book, already a #1 bestseller, is called Debt-Free Degree: The Step-By-Step Guide to Getting Your Kid Through College Without Student Loans.

Much like his mentor Dave Ramsey, Anthony shows you that just because everyone else is doing it – borrowing money – doesn’t mean you should be too.

In today’s episode, I ask Anthony to share:

  • The wrong ways to “do” college (i.e. the way everybody else does it)
  • Real methods for actually paying cash for college
  • Why it’s never too early to talk college with your child
  • And lots more!
