From career and education
8. Educated. A college education always pays for itself and more. In 2004, bachelor's degree holders earned on average $ 51206 per year, while high school graduates earned only $ 27915, according to census data compiled by HighBeam Research.
9. Your career is your most valuable asset. Manage with greater priority as you would with any other investment. Remember that without this advantage, could not survive.
10. Saving enough. You should try to save enough to cover at least one third of your kids' college total costs.
11. Consider public schools. Especially for colleges, schools can often be just as prestigious, if not more, than private schools.
12. Consider community college or college online for your first year or two. You can then transfer those credits to a more expensive (and prestigious) school to your final finish two or three years.
13. Investing in a 529 college savings account. It is tax-free. What should I say?
14. Request an increase. Use the Salary Wizard to see if you are doing as much as you should. Otherwise, ask for an increase, especially if you've been in business for more than a year.
15. Getting a professional certificate. A number of professions provide a certificate that, if merited, generally provide you with a higher salary.
16. Do not major in English. If you like study English, there is nothing wrong with that. Be aware that English majors generally do not earn very much. Six of the ten largest of the list with the highest wages are engineering majors, with chemical engineering top the list.
