The Price We Really Pay for College, with Ron Lieber

Ron Lieber, the personal finance columnist for the New York Times, and author of "The Price You Pay for College", joins the show just in time as millions of high school seniors are making their college decisions in the next couple of weeks. As Ron explains, the sticker price is rarely the final price we pay, and the decision about what and how to pay for college is one of the most important investment decisions a family can make, Plus, we unpack Elon Musk's crazy past two weeks amid his bid to buy Twitter and take it private, and how a new poison pill could derail his plans.
