It might be an Ivy League School but does that really guarantee your child will have an advantage whether it comes to getting a job . 9news reporter mike hydeck got some advice from a College Planning expert Paul Hempfield a few days ago. The more expensive the college you go to, the more your degree is worth s. That true or not . Our guest today is going to help dispel some myths about college, planning for it and paying for t. His name is Paul Hempfield, an author of a series of books on how to do that. First and foremost, if i go to an Ivy League School, chances are ill get a high paying career s. That automatic . No. In fact one of my clients who happens to interview candidates from an Ivy League School up in new england told me one time dont send your students to an Ivy League School because you can get a better education somewhere else. Theyre cutting back on expenses like crazy. Theyre hiring parttime professors. Theyre hiring teaching professionals who use english as a second language. The industry is saying these students were born into a bubble of privilege and coming out of these schools with the attitude that theyre entitled. And theyre sending a signal back to these students, youre not entitled. You have to get in line like everybody else. Is there a better way to save than others when it comes to college . Well, one of the things that you can do is you can always start off at a Community College when means you can take on a stafford loan which is available through the government, through the college, and the student signs for t not the parents. The parents will love that. And so what happens is the student can now go to an in state State College and be a commuter and still stay at home and bond with the parents for another four years. Bonding. Thats what they call it, right . And the parents end up not having to pay anything for a fouryear degree as long as the student keeps going back and forth to college by car every day. What are some of the other pictures you would like to myths that you would like to dispel . That you get well, one of the pictures if you go to a more myths is if you go to a more expensive college, you get a better education. Your student comes into my classroom. Georgetown is going to charge 6,000 for that course so that your daughter can sit there and text her friends. An hour from now i will have to run over to the university of Maryland College park where i will teach the same courses, same notes, being the same note and the parents are going to be charged 950 for the same course. You dont get what you pay for is the point. As long as there are parents out there thinking, thats a great thing to believe in, the more you pay, the better the education, places like georgetown and the ivy leagues will continue to survive and thrive. Thank you. 12. 19. It is another sizzler. The temperature 12 19. It is another sizzler and the temperature . I have to bump up the temperature.

Were observing early because curb appeal could help make or seal the deal. Mary lou, always good to have you here. How much does curb appeal add to the value of a home any time of the year . It always adds. It is the First Impression that a prospective buyer sees. And oftentimes it opens the door so that someone will want to go inside to see more. As a realtor, you say you even drive by certain properties. So whats the thing that first catches your eye . Where should we spend the money to make money . Spend the money to make money is not just in the landscaping. You need to take into account your front door. Put new hardware on. Often types people forget to wash your windows inside and out so it sparkles. That is a good idea. What about the painting . Because if you have sparkling windows, it could emphasize theres peeling paint or your shutters dont look good. I would say paint everything, your shutters, your front door, your outside, especially your trim, the mailbox. You want it as we said to sizzle. I notice a lot of houses now have some really good looking garage doors and interesting paving on the driveway. Does that really attract people enough that you want to make that expense . It attracts people. What really attracts people is that something is neat and clean. And that makes people want to look at more, what is insides. We put a good what is inside. We put a good cover on this house so it looks good on the outside. You say a seller and a buyer have to remember an important thing. The bottom line is the price. Thats it right there. Oftentimes sellers say, well lets just try 50,000 more even though nothing has sold in the neighborhood. And you get a contract. You cant get it appraised. So there it is. This is the time. Get a jump on National Curb appeal month next month and do your homework. Mary lou, always good to you have here with us. Good to be here. Thats it for wusa9 news.
