Planning for Major Purchases: Lunch and Learn

About the event

Presented by: Lyssa Thaden, Financial Education Content Development Manager, American Student Assistance

Making major purchases, like cars, can be exciting—but you shouldn’t take the commitment lightly. Cars.com reports that about 70 percent of buyers use loans to purchase cars; that can add up to a lot of debt for borrowers. This session prepares you to make informed decisions when shopping for big-ticket items—from car buying tips to information on when to use cash, credit, or store financing.

The Lunch & Learn series is sponsored by Spokane Student Affairs with a grant from STCU. Lunches occur every week with new topics and speakers each time. WSU Spokane students who RSVP to spok.sa@wsu.edu by the day before the event will receive a free lunch. All students, faculty and staff are welcome to attend.
