Ivette DeMoya, Northwestern, says considering that many of us are decided on pursuing post-graduate degrees, I would suggest taking advantage of the network you have at work to build some sort of knowledge base of what would possibly be your future living expenses. When meeting with anyone who has a post graduate degree, make sure to ask:
(1) do they have a post-graduate degree?
(2) In what?
(3) How did they finance it?
(4) What advice would they give you in terms of current savings, etc. to make it more of a realistic goal of being able to finance a post-graduate education?
