Kelly Alhooie reflects on lessons from physical therapy school, emphasizing regret over taking on large student loans and poor short-term spending choices. She advises stricter personal financial management—learning money skills and avoiding using loan disbursements for unnecessary expenses (e.g., parties, unneeded books).

I probably wouldn't taken out as many student loans. I probably would have been really strict on learning, like, how to manage money. Because when you get all these student loans and they're like, you know, these big loan amounts, what do you do with that? What do you do with that money? You know, you're like, great, that's going to go to my school. Oh, wait, but now they gave me an extra thousand dollars so I can spend it on books. But, oh, wait, I don't need books. So now I'm going to go spend it on these parties I'm throwing. Bad idea. You know? Bad idea.
