Looking for Student Loan Solutions? Don’t Take Bad Advice!
Most of the student loan advice that you see online is either wrong, too simplistic, or is meant for the “average” borrower. But the right repayment strategy for someone with $15,000 of student debt could be the wrong strategy for someone with $150,000 of student loans.
Travis and I discuss some of the best student loan repayment strategies available today. And I ask him what are some of the things a borrower should think through before choosing income-driven repayment, vs. forgiveness, vs. refinancing.
What We Talk About:
Here are a few of the other topics we discuss during the interview:
- How Travis began his career as a bond trader for Vanguard
- When it began to dawn on Travis that a lifetime of “9-5” wasn’t for him, and how the FIRE movement seemed to be a better fit for his personal goals
- How his soon-to-be father-in-law put a “kibosh” on his plans to travel the world
- How he stumbled upon his new career by simply trying to help his wife and friends find student loan solutions
- When and why traditional student loan solutions may not be right for you
If you’ve been looking for innovative student loan solutions to your own student debt, this is the episode for you! And, if you’d like, you can book a consultation with someone from Travis’ team today.
