And, yeah, I just wanted to make sure I was making the right decision because they don't agree with it. Are they paying for it? No, they're not paying for it.
The Ramsey Show
Money Stress Isn’t Always About Money
I brought that up, but they said they're going to be kicking me out. They'll also pay for housing. They'll also, like, take the car and my phone away.
The Ramsey Show
Money Stress Isn’t Always About Money
No, I don't really understand why. They just said it would look bad on resumes and they think I'm making the wrong decision. They said I was being pretty rude about it. I think that's why.
The Ramsey Show
Money Stress Isn’t Always About Money
I thought the same thing. I don't really know what their plan was for it.

Money Stress Isn’t Always About Money
I already knew that they didn't want me living there after I was 18. They said they would help me out a little bit before. It was definitely out of character for them to, like, once they kind of, like, said, like, My mom said I could keep the car. My dad was very against keeping the car after that. Were you being a jerk, dude?

I will admit, for the first 30 minutes we talked about this, I was very kind and peaceful. I was not as nice as I should have been to them.

Yeah, there's a... Yeah, there's a program called Mass Transfer, and it guarantees acceptance as well as some other scholarships as long as you maintain a certain grade point average in a community college.

Money Stress Isn’t Always About Money
Uh, so I'm an 18 year old and I'm a senior in high school this year. And I wanted pretty much advice on what to tell my parents about college. I've been watching you guys for a while now. And, uh, I know the biggest thing was, you know, don't go into debt. Don't take out loans. If you can try and cashflow it. So I figured I would want to go to a cheaper school. I was in Massachusetts.

So it's a community college is free. So I figured I would go there and I could transfer to a state school where, uh, it's an a hundred percent acceptance rate after out of the community college I want to go to. And, um, My parents were very against this idea. They wanted me to go play a sport in college and go to a private university. They told me, like, that doesn't matter.
