Liz Pulliam Weston Praises FastWeb College Gold

Liz Pulliam Weston writes a column for MSN Money and is the author of the nationally syndicated column, "Money Talk". She recommends FastWeb College Gold in her book, Easy Money: How to Simplify Your Finances and Get What You Want out of Life, Financial Times, November 16, 2007. She writes:

"Fortunately, there are some great guidebooks out there. Two of my favorites are ... and FastWeb College Gold: The Step-by-Step Guide to Paying for College by Mark Kantrowitz and Doug Hardy. Scoop up the latest editions of these books and educate yourself on the possibilities. Kantrowitz's Web site, www.FinAid.org, is another invaluable resource. Among other nifty tools, it has a financial aid calculator that can give you an idea of how much schools will expect you to contribute. Families with young children should use the calculator as a wake-up call to get them saving more; families with older kids can use it as a way to help them plan for the expenses ahead."
