Got 99 problems and money is one of them? The struggles of being a broke college kid.

As you may know, college tends to drain money from our bank accounts everyday. Some of the things that we have to pay for are tuition, food, gas, and rent. Those four things take a huge toll on a kid, especially if you’re a first year student. Fortunately though, I only have to pay for gas and tuition, as I still live with my parents. Although all of these factors put a big burden on our shoulders, there are many ways to get through it. One way is to get a part time job. By having a part time job, you’ll have a source of income every week or two weeks that allows you to make payments and develop a sense of responsibility. Another way to deal with being broke is to ask yourself if you really need that new pair of shoes, or if you really need to eat out every night of the week. You have to manage your money wisely or else all of those small expenses add up to one large expense over a months time or so. So just remember! There are always ways to help your financial needs as you go through college.
