Reality Check before College

Hey guys! So this post is not complete college related but I do think it is extremely helpful to know about if you future career goal sustains the lifestyle you see yourself having in 10-20 years!

A couple weeks ago my amazing internship at Methodist Healthcare Ministries had a financial training day for all of their interns. At the training there were 2 wonderful Lectures telling us about how to manage our finances. On the last slide of the presentation there was a bold like saying:

Texas Reality Check

We all were told to try it and let me tell you it was very eye opening. Not only did I find out how expensive it is to have kids but also that I can be my dream career! A Biochemist! 

Now, I have to say that the reality check does factor in most expenses and income but it does forget about things such as you partners income and even insurances.
Yet is one of the most helpful tools in career planning. It even factors in where you will be living!
I really recommend taking it at least once!

Here are some reality checks I found for other states:
