Speaking at Ball State University, I shared five steps to financial success.

Being a millionaire should not be a problem if you start applying these five things after graduating from college.

Just focus on two of the five, career and personal finance, and you can be a huge financial success! Since your salary is your biggest wealth building tool, it is time to land that career job!

Go to any on line calculator and use the average starting salary for college grads and you see that it is very realistic in time to reach a million dollars. The problem for most people is that they don't land the a good job and they carry too much debt.

Compound interest works you just need to start saving early and be consistent.

Millennials have the advantage today to have all this information at their finger tips and a life time to apply it!

So Millennials should all be financial successful the question is, what does success mean to you?

  • My name is Jacob Lafever, and I graduated in May of 2016 from Purdue University with a degree in Landscape Architecture, and a little over $27000 in student debt.
  • I started my first landscape architecture position with Curtis + Rogers Design Studio, a design firm in Miami, Florida as a Jr. Landscape Architect.
  • From working extreme hours in studios and other courses at Purdue, I knew work-life balance was very important to me, and I knew I wanted to find an employer who valued me more as a person than a worker.
  • The biggest lesson that has helped me to find a place to begin my career is patience. Wait to find something that is worthwhile and enjoyable, and be open to possibilities you may have never considered before.
  • In the six months since I started my job my debt has dropped to less than $24K, and I'm currently paying a minimum of $500 a month towards my debts. I'm on track to pay off my loans in a little under 5 years.

Jeff Eads, Ball State University Career Coach, works with thousands of college graduates each year and shares valuable insights on interviewing.

He talks about the importance of making a strong first impression. Employers report that the first impression usually sticks and hiring decisions often come back to how a candidate did in the first five minutes.

We talked about the importance of a candidate matching the interviewer's energy level and personality. The key is to work on your body language especially the little things. For example are you standing with a confident posture and ready to engage?

In business today there are more distractions than ever and so people tend form opinions about us very quickly. In fact research shows that in ten seconds people are already forming their opinions about us.

So the key is know your story, have confident and energetic body language and then be ready not only with your resume but some with open ended questions to engage the other person.
