Dave Ramsey Tells You How to Afford College in Difficult Times

Second, in August 2008 Dave Ramsey discussed how to go to college debt free. He has several good ideas.

In Dave Ramsey's book, The Total Money Makeover, he mentions several interesting ideas about how to think about a college education that goes against the norm. I would recommend this book as a good source about financial concepts.

Even if you don't buy the book, go to your local library or your local bookstore and read Dave's concept of how many students finance unnecessary expenses. I remember reading about 2-3 pages that I wished that everybody going to college could read.
