Is It Worth It?
Show your ROI math here.
Example:
$29,000 (Median income of High School grad in Ca.)
$1,363,000 (Life time earnings of a non-college high
school grad: $29,000 X 47)
My Career Salary as a ________
75,000 x 42 = $3,150,000
Loan payments: $48,334 (paid over 10 years)

Return on investment :
$3,150,000 - $48,334 $1,363,000 = *$1,738,665*
