Getting MyRichUncle To Pay For School

from the with-a-catch... dept

Well, this is definitely a different idea. A few years back this might have been a huge idea in terms of hype, but now I’m not so sure. The folks behind MyRichUncle.com want to allow students to get some financial backing for their college costs. In return, the students have to promise the MyRichUncle investors some percentage of their income for the fifteen years after they graduate college. Of course, this isn’t all that different in reality than student loans. It’s just that student loan payouts aren’t dependent specifically on how much you’re earning.
