I’m going to get my MSW, starting August. I and my spouse made 64k last year combined. I have 65k in savings. I need 60k to get through the program (2 years tuition and expenses)without working. When I graduate I want to put a down payment on a home. Should I keep the cash for that down payment and get a loan for school? Then pay out of pocket for graduate school with no debt and then try to get a house with little to no down payment? That 65k was gifted through wealthy family over the last 15 years and I’ve just held on to it. I wish they could pay for school but that’s not been offered. I think I’m an example of a millennial with no financial sense!
On that note maybe I should be investing it as well, or?
Yes I know I should try to get a paid internship and no I can’t work while I attend school. So let’s assume I won’t have one.
I know people will say screw an MSW but I’m doing it. It is a calling and I’ve done other things to try and squash that, to make money for the sake of it, and we’ll I’m not made for that life.
