What are income-share agreements, and do they exist in the world of entrepreneurship?
Notes from Chris
Episode 1614
Some cool things are happening in the world of higher education, which of course has changed a lot in the past decade or two—but one thing that hasn’t changed, at least until recently, is the skyrocketing cost of tuition. A listener has an opportunity to go to school as part of an income-share agreement (ISA), where her tuition isn’t due until after she graduates. What is this all about, and is it a good deal? Also, are there opportunities like this for side hustlers to learn about entrepreneurship?"Hey Chris, this is Megan and I've recently learned about income-share agreements.
