College, Career and Cost

Are you or your child considering the pursuit of a college degree and a career? Before you commit to years of schooling and student loans, you need to read College, Career & Cost. 

Dr. Cody Thompson, a seasoned physical therapist, university professor, and healthcare workforce expert, and author of "College, Career and Cost in Healthcare" exposes the financial realities of pursuing a healthcare career. Drawing from two decades of experience, he reveals a troubling truth—while tuition costs continue to rise, salaries in many healthcare professions are stagnant or even declining. Too many students graduate with overwhelming debt, only to realize their expected income doesn’t match the financial burden they’ve taken on.

- The enormous wealth gap between different college and career paths

- How to choose a career without sacrificing financial freedom

- Alternative pathways to various professions that minimize debt and maximize income

- How parents can guide their children toward smart, strategic career choices

- Practical tools for evaluating education costs vs. real-world earning potential

Whether you're a high school student, college advisor, or parent, College, Career & Cost equips you with the knowledge to make informed, financially sound decisions about education and career planning. Don’t let outdated, uninformed advice or societal pressure dictate your future—learn how to pursue your passion while maintaining financial independence.

Your career choices today will impact your financial future for decades. Make your best decision.
