While most CU students would claim to aspire to financial goals (paying off student loans, owning a home, saving for the future), recent studies show that a large percentage of people between the ages of 25-40 are deeply in debt, living from paycheck to paycheck, and highly stressed about their financial lives.  Attend this seminar, presented by Elevations Credit Union, to discuss ways to keep in control of your finances.  During this hour, we will cover:
