CFO Jimmy Patronis Recognizes September as National College Savings Month
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Today, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jimmy Patronis issued a proclamation recognizing September as National College Savings Month and encourages Floridians to start saving now for your child’s future. A college degree is a major investment and with student loan debt reaching an estimated $1.7 trillion nationwide, pre-planning for the cost of college is not only vital to your student’s academic success, but future financial success as well. By saving a little each month early on, families can prepare financially for college in a way that is affordable and guaranteed.
CFO Jimmy Patronis said, “Attending a college or university is a major milestone and one of the most expensive investments a person can make. Setting your child up for academic success without saddling them with major student loan debt is important to a successful financial future. As your CFO, I encourage Florida families to take advantage of all of the available tools and resources to help in college planning. It’s never too early or too late to start preparing for college expenses. Visit MyFloridaPrepaid.com today to research the best way to lock in future college costs for less and begin saving for your child’s future.”
