"HOW I MADE $18,000 FOR COLLEGE BY WORKING WEEKENDS."
When my friends and I graduated from high school, we all took part-time jobs to pay for college.
They ended up in car washes and hamburger joints,putting in long hours for little pay.
Not me. My job takes just one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Yet, I'm earning $18,000 for college.
Because I joined my local Army National Guard.
They're the people who help our state during emergencies like hurricanes and floods. They're also an important part of our country's military defense.
So, since I'm helping them do such an important job,they're helping me make it through school.
As soon as I finished Advanced Training, the Guard gave me a cash bonus of $2,000. Then, under the New GI Bill, I'm getting another $5,000 for tuition and books.
Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They'll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I'm in the Guard.
And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back-up to $1,500 a year, plus interest.
It all adds up to $18,000-or more for college for just a little of my time. And that's a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you.
