Answering The Question: What To Do After...

The College Investor
About this episode

I don't know what to do after college!?! It's one of the most common questions I hear - from high school grads, to college students, to even some nearing college graduation.

If you find yourself saying, “I don’t know what to do after college,” you are not alone.

The truth is, most college grads have a "now what" moment. You've basically lived your entire life to-date in some type of educational setting. 

Even if continuing on to grad school or some form of post-baccalaureate education is not in your immediate future, and a job is not exactly what you are looking for, there are ways to live life after college that will still make you a productive member of society.

I'm going to share with you my thoughts on what to do after college. Maybe you think these are basic - fine. But maybe they will give you some food for thought.
