Really excited about this episode as we interview brother Hamzah Ghia and how he graduated both his undergrad and got his Masters degree completely debt free!

Hamzah is currently the Qur'an teacher at Masjid Hamzah in Houston, Texas.

Some of the topics we cover:

• What his process was in going to college without student loans
• His scholarship application process while was in high school
• The benefits of hard work and how that carries over into your professional career

This episode features an interview with Ron Lieber. Since 2008, He has been the “Your Money” columnist for The New York Times, where his columns about student loans won the 2011 Loeb award, business journalism’s highest honor, in the personal finance category.

He is also the author of the newly released book, The Opposite of Spoiled. 

Some of the topics we cover:

*What makes kids spoiled?

*Should you tell your kids how much money you make?
