Schools want to 35 00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: give money to people that have shown proven history in 36 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: high school of being active and value members, like they 37 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 2: want to put you on the billboard.

So we spoke 50 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 4: around two years ago and it was a great episode. 51 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 4: So we got your whole backstory, how you started a business, 52 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 4: in a variety of different things. So we'll go straight 53 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 4: into it this time because I think that being that 54 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 4: we already kind of spoke on that side, now we 55 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 4: can kind of just focus straight on the student loan issues. 56 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 4: And there's a lot that's going on. Obviously, it's very 57 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 4: time sensitive. The President, Joe Biden, has made some new changes, 58 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 4: so there's a lot to talk about, and a lot 59 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 4: of people are confused. A lot of people don't know 60 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 4: what's going on, what's what's real and what's not. And 61 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 4: now more than ever, people need the information because you know, 62 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 4: student loans have only gone up so trillion dollars in debt. 63 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 5: Total real debt dollars. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 64 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 4: First and Foremo, thank you for joining us, appreciate it, 65 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 4: thank you for having me back. 66 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: I will say business changed significantly. It's a blessing over 67 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 2: your lives. No, the awareness that you guys brought to 68 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 2: our business after the first episode, I really can't thank 69 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: you guys enough, just because it is in line everything 70 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: you guys talk about. There's always somebody's little elephant, like, 71 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 2: but what about my loans when you think about investing, 72 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: home buying, any of that, somebody has a probably six 73 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 2: figure student loan problem that may stop them from doing 74 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: all the great things you guys are talking about. So 75 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: when we shed a little light or a little perspective, 76 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 2: it just makes people want to go actually do what 77 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: you guys are telling them to do. 78 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's one of those things that as teenagers. I 79 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 5: can remember even now when we talk to the young adults, 80 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 5: nobody prepares them for this moment, and we try to 81 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 5: say it's the probably the biggest financial decision you're going 82 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 5: to make at eighteen. I mean, obviously, if somebody gets 83 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 5: married later their life, that'll be one, but college is 84 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 5: that And if you make the wrong decision or if 85 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 5: you don't have the right information, like you said, you're 86 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 5: talking six figures in debt, which is tough to climb 87 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 5: out of, especially when you talk about interest rates, especially 88 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 5: when you talk about the cost of living. It's tough, 89 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 5: it's almost insurmountable, and we don't know, we don't know why. 90 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 5: This is why episodes like this is so important. 91 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, So okay, let's start here. 92 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 4: So we posted last week, a couple weeks ago that 93 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 4: Biden announced to cancel more than five million dollars in 94 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 4: student loan debt money additional and a lot of people, 95 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 4: you know, they was confused. They're like, well, I don't 96 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 4: know anybody that has received any cancel doing loans, and 97 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 4: people it was like, well, I actually did receive it cancel. 98 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 2: I saw the comments. Yeah yeah, So. 99 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 4: What exactly what Ezaki happened and who actually benefits from this? 100 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 2: So here's what's going to happen. We're going to see 101 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: more and more headlines like five billion, five We're going 102 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: to just see all these headlines because what is coming 103 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 2: up anybody know, election? So this is going to be 104 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 2: the carrot if you will, to get people to re 105 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 2: elect in terms of our age groups, so you figure 106 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: anywhere from like age thirty to like fifty five, the 107 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: student loan carrot is definitely going to keep being pulled. 108 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: So he did actually give out money and I do 109 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: know from my community a lot of people been in 110 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 2: from it. Now, let's talk about who benefited from it 111 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: the most. You probably were over age forty five. You 112 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: probably were in school, like nineteen ninety five to two thousand, 113 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: because there was a time period around that type of 114 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 2: money that he gave out. And the term here is 115 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 2: called income driven repayment. They were looking to see were 116 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: you in school and payment for twenty twenty five years. 117 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: And then here's the thing. They even made some exclusions. 118 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 2: Let's say you weren't in repayment, but you had loans 119 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 2: that amount of time in repayment they hit for forgiven. Well, 120 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: we might get into it, but there was a big 121 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: glitch that occurred recently too. So even though they put 122 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: the headline out there about the five I think it 123 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 2: was billion, right billion, we're using terms of billions. 124 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 4: Now right, we saying billions billion five. 125 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: The challenge is is that there were about over nine 126 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 2: million people left out in that last round. So this 127 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: is the first time ever that they actually made an 128 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 2: announcement that they messed up. I was very big with 129 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:39,679 Speaker 2: the Department Education. 130 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 5: I feel like they always messing up. 131 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 2: Well, they actually said they did it though, So what 132 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: happened was there's literally what they do is they push 133 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: a button. It's like a real one button, and if 134 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: you qualify according to their system, you would have got 135 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 2: the email. You get the letter. Things go into perspective, Well, 136 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 2: a lot of people, over nine million people got skipped 137 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 2: because if you had just consolidated a few years prior 138 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 2: or you know how all these loans are being transferred 139 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: to different lenders, the lenders aren't showing the full loan history. 140 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: So a lot of people accidentally got skipped. 141 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 5: So who are the lenders that that would qualify because 142 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 5: I know, I mean, any federal. 143 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 2: Legdars can qualify. But the problem is is, let's give 144 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: it a good example. You know how everybody went from 145 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: FED loans to Mohilia that was in the public service 146 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: long forgiveness. Well, just because you went over to Mohilla 147 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 2: doesn't mean all of your history went with you. And 148 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 2: there used to be an old system. If you're an 149 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 2: education you'll know it called NSLDS. It actually used to 150 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: be open to the public until the pandemic. We all 151 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 2: could have looked at everybody's loan history on that site. 152 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 2: Colleges and universities use it Now it's a private site. 153 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: So if you want what's called your pre conversion record, 154 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 2: you have to request it from the Department of Education. 155 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 2: Now it's very so it's very elusive, and it's actually 156 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 2: not beneficial to just the everyday person to be a 157 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: to track their progress. You used to contract, how long 158 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: you were in for parents for payment in school. Those 159 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: are the type of pieces of information you need to 160 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 2: fight for yourself to get your loans forgiven. 161 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 4: So okay, so how do you apply for that for 162 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 4: the pre conversion or which part Joe Biden what he 163 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 4: just did? 164 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 2: Okay, So if you missed it, a lot of people 165 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: missed it, Like I said, over nine million people missed it. 166 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: What you would have to do is file a complaint. 167 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 2: So we actually have something that we're putting together and 168 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 2: we've been helping people one on one file a complaint. 169 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 2: So the cool thing about it is is that it's 170 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 2: going to take them about let's say three to six 171 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 2: months from now. We're with December. In December, so three 172 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 2: to six months from now, they're going to literally go 173 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: through each person's complaint. So that department is called the 174 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: Obuzman Group. They'll look through, they'll say, hey, we shot, 175 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 2: you're right, you should have been forgiven. We didn't see 176 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: your pre conversion record from prior. Some people will be 177 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 2: sold No, let's say you were in grad school for forever. 178 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 2: You weren't in repay then, so you have to literally 179 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 2: submit a complaint through Student Aid doc Gov. Right, And 180 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: it can't be like I'm upset y'all didn't forgive me, 181 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: so they're going to close it out. So it has 182 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 2: to be thought out. And you should even like highlight 183 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 2: or be prepared to say if you know which loans 184 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 2: you believe could be forgiven, so spend a little time 185 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 2: on it. 186 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 5: Gotcha, gotcha. So that was for the nine million people, 187 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 5: the biggest one. And when you came in, you're like, try, 188 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 5: how your loan's doing well. 189 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 2: I just knew you was going to say they were going. 190 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 2: I was excited for. 191 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,599 Speaker 5: There's some confusion around it, right, because I feel like 192 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 5: they make a mistakes. So the public Service loan forgiveness. Yes, 193 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 5: so there's a couple of things around it. Let's just 194 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,959 Speaker 5: explain to the people again what that is. And then 195 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 5: I know there's a bunch of dates. So I even 196 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 5: I get the emails like, hey, this is expiring by 197 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 5: the October, so we'll start there and then we'll dive 198 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 5: into the some of the misconceptions and confusion around the 199 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 5: public service. 200 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 2: So just depending on the audience that's watching this, most people, 201 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 2: I would say, just even think about your events are 202 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 2: between thirty and fifty. Would you say that's about right? 203 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 5: Yep. 204 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 2: So if you're between forty and fifty, you got to 205 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: be careful here. You want to log in the studenta 206 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 2: dot gov and you want to look at your loans 207 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: click view details, and you want to see if it 208 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 2: says that you have a direct loan, very important. If 209 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: you have what's called a FFELP loan, that's not going 210 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 2: to work. So it has to be direct loan. That's 211 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 2: all you need to know. Then you'll be eligible for 212 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: any forgiveness programs coming up, even by the loan forgiveness. 213 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 2: But they're doing something really really I don't want to 214 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 2: say sneaky, but one email went out about it. If 215 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 2: you have an f FELP loan, you have until December 216 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 2: thirty first. 217 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 5: This year this year to apply to apply. 218 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 2: Or you will never get anything forgiven. This is a 219 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 2: heavy word to say never, okay, but the administration is 220 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 2: said you will never might they're being using. So what 221 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: will happen is is if somebody's watching this in January, 222 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 2: good to know you will want to if you have 223 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: missed this information, you will want to contact the Department Education, 224 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 2: not your lender, and see if there's any way that 225 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 2: you can get an extension. Now, what might happen which 226 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 2: is important to note go to student A dot got 227 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: for this update. There may be an extension given because 228 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 2: when we look at the data, that's over ten million people, 229 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 2: and we know that there's forty three million barbers, ten 230 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 2: million are going to be excluded from forgiveness forever because 231 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 2: of that rule. 232 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 5: And from a standpoint, like you said, there is an election, 233 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 5: you want to have the most people. 234 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 2: That's OK, that's a hard rule to put. 235 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 5: You can sway them around that. But so the loan forgiveness, 236 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 5: the teacher, well we'll get to the teacher loan forgiveness, 237 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 5: but the public. 238 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 2: The best program I think that exists. 239 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 5: Yes, it's still the same requirements, right, it's one hundred 240 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 5: and twenty qualifying payments, ten years of service. And so 241 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 5: if you have those things, most people think they qualify. Yeah, right, 242 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 5: And so I was under that assumption yeah. And then 243 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 5: when I was filling out the application, there was a 244 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 5: box and the box said, and this is to my understanding, 245 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 5: I was like, wait, I don't know if I qualify 246 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 5: anymore because technically I don't work as a teacher in 247 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 5: ability I do it. 248 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: That's why I wanted to clarify. 249 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 5: So I was like, wait, I don't qualify anymore. And 250 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 5: to my assumption, because when I read the fine line, 251 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 5: it said, hey, if you're no longer employed, then how 252 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 5: do we do it? 253 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 6: Do it? 254 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 5: So I didn't the first time. I didn't do it well, 255 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 5: I did it earlier, and then I didn't qualify for 256 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 5: the first before body changed the rules. Then I saw 257 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 5: that line, I'm. 258 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 2: Like hammering you on days because that thought is what 259 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 2: stopping everybody for so many clients. I wanted people to 260 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 2: hear you say that, so I read it again. I 261 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 2: just still feel like I want to just, you know, 262 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 2: tell everybody that's listening, it's not about what you feel 263 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: or think anymore. Just submit because there are new rules. 264 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 2: And what you don't know is what you're talking about 265 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 2: is the rules that you could have missed. Was October 266 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, they put a hard stop exactly, but 267 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: it's not a hard stop. This is why I said, 268 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 2: they waiver you go on the website for limited time only. 269 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: The te PSL LEFT program has been extended. That's what 270 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: you're under. But nobody's going to call you. Nobody text 271 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: him and said, hey, foy, did you get that paper in? 272 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 2: So people did what They just let it go and 273 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 2: forgot about it. 274 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 5: So I still got a chance. 275 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 2: You have a fighting chance. And so I also tell people, 276 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 2: because we are coming up on Biden Loan forgiveness, those 277 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: that are eligible for t EPSLF, and I say these 278 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 2: acronyms a lie and I say them hard so that 279 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 2: I will hope that they go to student a dot 280 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 2: gov and type it in. Like if you type in 281 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 2: t EPs LF, everything comes up. You got to like 282 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 2: literally go to your old employers, like pull up on them, 283 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 2: get a wet signature and a keyword mallet certified, no 284 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 2: stamps got they throw them out.

So there's 287 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 5: a couple of things now right, because the Public Service 288 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 5: Loan and the teacher Loan Forgiveness are two different things. Yeah, right, 289 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 5: So if somebody works ten years as a teacher, right, 290 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 5: but they got the loan giveness from this, do they 291 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 5: work in conjunction or not anymore? 292 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: A good question. So if you are a teacher and 293 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 2: you could also get PSLF, it used to be before 294 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 2: October twenty twenty two you could do both, but now 295 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 2: you have to do one or the other. Obviously we 296 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 2: want to do PSLF forget. I get like like tickle 297 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 2: pink about this stuff, like so exciting.

I'm like, no, 343 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 2: I took it off line. 344 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 5: So that's some of those like them online schools that 345 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 5: kind of just. 346 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 2: They're keeping it very blanket on purpose. 347 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 5: That would be like an exist Yeah, all right. 348 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: Number four borrowers eligible for existing relief programs, including public 349 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: service loan forgiveness. This this shoe who just haven't applied. 350 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 2: That's me not being serious, Like that's you, that's me. Okay. 351 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 2: The last one, you're all ready for this one? This 352 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 2: everybody borrowers and financial hardship. 353 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 5: Now what qualifies financial hardship? 354 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 4: Throw? 355 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 2: So the problem here is in the good problem is 356 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 2: that my belief and I set this on my platform. 357 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 2: They made things so broad because they want almost everybody 358 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 2: to be eligible. You kind of con find yourself in 359 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 2: one of five. Then number two is this an application 360 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: again or is this general? It has to be some 361 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,479 Speaker 2: form of application for you to be subjective like this. 362 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 2: Then the last thing is and to your point number three, 363 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 2: this is why I think it's going to pass through. 364 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 2: So when they did the first round of Biden loan forgiveness, 365 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 2: and again I think everything's political anyway, they put it through. 366 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 2: What was the one that Trump had said we can 367 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 2: have the Pandemic pause for. I'm sorry, I don't know 368 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 2: that one. I think it was the Pandemic Act. There 369 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 2: was a clause a lot of things got passed through, 370 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 2: so they tried to attach loan forgiveness to that, but 371 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 2: that's not what that act was for. So the act 372 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 2: that exists that they're going to put this program under 373 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 2: is the nineteen sixty five Act. So it's called the 374 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty five Higher Education Act, passed by Lyndon B. Johnson. 375 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 2: So I have a friend shout out to Ebane. She 376 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 2: is a reporter for the White House, and she texted 377 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: me all the time and says, what questions do I 378 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 2: ask Secretary of card Dota. I said, you asked them 379 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 2: these questions. Do you think that you're going to put 380 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 2: Biden loan forgiveness again through the nineteen sixty five Higher 381 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 2: Education Act? He said yes. So when it came out, 382 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 2: that's what they're doing. This doesn't have to go through 383 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court. This can just exist. So what they 384 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 2: did was they put a committee of about twenty people together. 385 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 2: They influential leaders, community members, good representation of minorities, and 386 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 2: they put together this parameter what I just read to you, 387 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 2: and this just has to now get approved. But good 388 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 2: news is not a proved by the Supreme Court. 389 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 5: So that's good. 390 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. So what a save save the Save program. So 391 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 2: this is one of the best programs that I think 392 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 2: is going to be very helpful. And we even see 393 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 2: the difference with our clients and payments. So this is 394 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 2: the new repayment plan. It replaces the repay plan. A 395 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 2: lot of people got automatically placed into the Saved plan. 396 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: If you didn't get automatically placed into save plan is 397 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: because they couldn't pull your tax information. Now they're just 398 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 2: pulling it. So it's good and bad thing. But long 399 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 2: story short, this plan as of next year, because I 400 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 2: just checked everything again before I got here, it used 401 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 2: to be a ten percent repayment, it's going to go 402 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 2: down to five percent right now, still holding a ten 403 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 2: percent repayment, but the flexibilities of it. They're now letting 404 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 2: you say, even though I'm married, I can say that 405 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 2: I don't have access to my spouse's information, which is 406 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: a big deal because if I have one hundred and 407 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: fifty thousand loans and we may combine two hundred thousand, 408 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 2: you think the whole money of the house is going 409 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 2: to go to this payment, and most people that's not 410 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 2: the case. So now they can say, which is new 411 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 2: than before, I cannot access my spouse information, so basically 412 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 2: like can you evaluate me on just my information? So 413 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 2: it's a big deal to help with people's pay. 414 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 4: So, and that's for anybody. 415 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's going to be based off of income. So 416 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 2: the sweet spot is going to be if you make 417 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 2: about forty five thousand that they increase that number used 418 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 2: to be like if you made thirty thousand. If you 419 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 2: make about forty five thousand, you will have a zero 420 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 2: dollar payment. If you are making fifty five and most 421 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 2: people make about fifty five to sixty five, that's going 422 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,719 Speaker 2: to allow you to have like AE hundred dollars payment. 423 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 2: So we're really excited about it. We see our clients 424 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 2: are like, are you serious, I can afford that, I 425 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 2: can start repayment. So we just hear the excitemental of 426 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 2: the phone because before they get on the phone with us, 427 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 2: their estimated payment is like two thousand dollars because it's 428 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 2: just six figure that. 429 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 5: Now, all these are payments that have to qualify. They 430 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 5: have to be part of a specific program. I know 431 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 5: before it was like it had to be like income 432 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 5: based and. 433 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 2: So David's income driven yep. 434 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 5: So yeah, same thing. So it bases on how much 435 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 5: you made percentage of that is what you're going to 436 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 5: have to pay. Yeah, okay, okay. 437 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 2: Quick tip because a lot of people did really well 438 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: in the pandemic financially. Maybe they had got a side 439 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 2: hustle side, but whatever. If that is not your case anymore, 440 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: welcome to the world. You need to submit a pay stuff. 441 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: You need to let them know there was a financial change. 442 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 2: You can put that it says did anything change? A 443 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 2: lot of people skipping and hit No, no, it did change. 444 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 2: You're not probably making the same money you made when 445 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: you did your taxes in the pandemic. So you should 446 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 2: let them know. 447 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 5: What you report, right for the taxes, so you. 448 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 2: Should submit a pay stuff. If that changes, well you 449 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 2: would be surprised. Like we, for example, I'm give you 450 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 2: a good example. We have clients that are, for example, 451 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 2: travel nurses. You know nurses, was you know, running it 452 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: up in the pandemic because they were needed. Now it's 453 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 2: kind of coming down of it, kind of normal workflow. 454 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 2: And then one lady says to me, she's said, girl, 455 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 2: she said, I made three hundred thousand. She said, this 456 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 2: year is looking like ninety thousand. She said, how do 457 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 2: I show that difference? We had this centerpay stuff. 458 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 5: So if that income repayment was five percent of that, 459 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 5: we're talking about a huge difference in payment. Yeah, yeah, 460 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 5: that makes sense. Yeah that's good enough. 461 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,959 Speaker 4: So what about barrowers defense forgiveness? 462 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 2: So this program is the funniest one of them all. Like, 463 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: so the thing about this business when I first started 464 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 2: it not to be funny. I was like I started 465 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 2: business as consistent. Nothing's changing. This stuff changes every week now, 466 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 2: thanks fighting keeps as relevant. So Barbers Defense is one 467 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 2: of those programs that literally is changing almost every three 468 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 2: to six months. So Barber's Defensive. You went to a 469 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 2: school that they identified. There's about two hundred schools, as 470 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,400 Speaker 2: Secretary of Cardona said, these schools were farug laning. For example, 471 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 2: University of Phoenix was on the list. The riders on 472 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 2: the list. It t tech know. 473 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 5: It sounds like every commercial. 474 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 2: Every commercial you ever watched was on the list. Now, 475 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 2: so if it was, it was a for profit school 476 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 2: with a commercial. Check the list, all right. So when 477 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 2: you see your school's name on the list, you're probably thinking, oh, 478 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 2: but I didn't go there. No, when I tell you 479 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 2: this July they changed the rules again. That said if 480 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 2: you ever attended, they're going to ask you a little 481 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 2: bit more questions, need a little bit more paperwork, You 482 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 2: fill it in, you send it off. In about a 483 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 2: year's time, you're probably gonna get forgiven. And with this program, 484 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 2: they're giving you back the money you paid on your loans. 485 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: A checking the mail too, now, I thought it was 486 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 2: kind of like BS, I'm not gonna lie but I 487 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 2: have a friend who screenshoted me his it T checks, 488 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 2: I mean checks, because he paid for his education there. 489 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: So it's a really great program. 490 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 5: So you're applying for these programs and this because most 491 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 5: people will say, well, I apply for it, I'm gonna 492 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 5: wait to see what the you know, the ruin is 493 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 5: they stop paying? All right, what's your thought? Oh? 494 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 2: Right now, we're in what's called the on ramp program. 495 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 2: On ramp means they just are anticipating people are not 496 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 2: about to pay this year, like it's the You have 497 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 2: until September thirtieth, twenty and twenty four to get your 498 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 2: life together with your student loans. October one, twenty twenty four, 499 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 2: they will start to report to your credit They will 500 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 2: you will be late, you will be going back into default. 501 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 2: They'll take your taxes again, not this year, coming up 502 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 2: with the following your twenty five. So you have a 503 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 2: year to figure it out. So I say this with grace. 504 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 2: If you need to go into forbearance, go into in 505 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 2: forbearance because you have this year. That's what this year 506 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 2: is for. However, a lot of people don't have to 507 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 2: put themselves into forbearance. If your lender is Mohellia in 508 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: as example, Mohelia is putting people into what's called an 509 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 2: administrative for bearance because they can't handle all of the 510 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 2: workload that's coming their way. This is new. They even 511 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 2: are pulling in other lenders just think of about that 512 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 2: to do their work. 513 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 5: It's a lot of people. 514 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 2: So eight Advantage is now processing all the consolidations for 515 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 2: Mohilia right now. 516 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 5: So for bearance means that I don't have to I'm 517 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 5: putting a pause on the repayment of my loans. Now. 518 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 5: When I was in school, and I don't know if 519 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 5: this might have changed for a long time, you had 520 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 5: six months after you graduated or completed whatever whatever school 521 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 5: and you had to begin paying the money back your 522 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 5: loan back. If not, you would go into forbearance. Are 523 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 5: those rules still a change, Are still the same or 524 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 5: have they changed over the best? 525 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 2: So the same. So you're talking about you were in 526 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 2: school deferment used very words deferment for six months months. Yeah, 527 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 2: and then when you was like I still can't pay, 528 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 2: you went into forbearance. When I'm talking about what Mohella 529 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: is doing is putting people into what's called administrator for barans, 530 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 2: which they cover the interest and still allow you to 531 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 2: get months for PSLF. 532 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 5: But those months, those those count toward because it's their fault. 533 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 2: Basically, the government is saying this is on us. When 534 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 2: there was a pandemic, Pauls, the government said this is 535 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 2: on us. So when we were in a pandemic pause, 536 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 2: if you had direct loans, you were in an administrative for. 537 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 5: Bearance during that time. So this this pandemic pause was 538 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 5: two and a half years. 539 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 2: We just started paying these two and a half years 540 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 2: in my life. 541 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 5: So talk about that because I would imagine that as 542 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 5: in your profession of you know, teaching people about the 543 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 5: importance of student loans. There are some people where you 544 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 5: might have suggested, hey, there's no interest on the loan 545 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 5: right now, this might be a good time to pay 546 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 5: it back. What was that two and a half period 547 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 5: like for you on your business? 548 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 2: Well, I remember when I got the news. I saw 549 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 2: it on TV and I had to sit down for 550 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 2: this one. I said no, no, put my glasses on because 551 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 2: I couldn't understand what was coming up on the screen. 552 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 2: No student loan payments until it was like March. I 553 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 2: think I called her first. It was like it shout 554 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 2: out to Denise's. So I was like, girl, it's just 555 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: like a like a thirty day thing. What you think 556 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 2: like sixty days because every business owner knows was in 557 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 2: their cushion account, like if I had to float my 558 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 2: employees and all of that. But when they did that 559 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 2: second extension for the year, I said, oh, you know, 560 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 2: so now what I did was and honestly, I made 561 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 2: a lot of money in the pandemic pause because I'm 562 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 2: a creative. So I said, Okay, you don't have a payment, 563 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 2: You're going to learn about your loans, You're going to 564 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 2: fix other things. So I had put out a student 565 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 2: loan ebook. Now that's kind of radical for people to 566 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 2: buy a student loon ebolo. Let's just think about that 567 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 2: for a second. Who wants to buy ebook around studol loans? 568 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 2: But what I did was I said meet me at 569 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 2: nine pm. And I probably am the one of the 570 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 2: most consistent people on Instagram. I teach every day more 571 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 2: than most people. I'm going to either teach you at 572 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 2: ten am, nine pm or eleven pm. Sometimes I do 573 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 2: two shows a day. So what I was doing was 574 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 2: I was building a community and we would have fun. 575 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 2: We would we started doing we would do student loan information. 576 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 2: First I start off like I'm a reporter. Then my 577 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 2: next personality came on. That's me. I would put some 578 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 2: glasses on, some Gucci glasses and I would turn the Susie. 579 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 2: I mean, it was just really fun times. But here's 580 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 2: what happened. It made people actually care about their loans 581 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 2: and their credit. And then sometimes we would do Instagram 582 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 2: speed dating and I said, in order to join them, 583 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 2: remember how you do the lives with different people, you 584 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 2: had to have a seven forty credit score better. I 585 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 2: mean it was really good times. Now you're like, well, 586 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 2: how did you make money? So what happened was in 587 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 2: that time period. I think it's because I was very 588 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 2: like hands on. I'm a teacher at heart, you know 589 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 2: that used to teach as a college professor. I would say, 590 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 2: meet me at nine o'clock buying friendly on Zoom, and 591 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 2: we would log into our student loans together. We would 592 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 2: look at your credit report and I'm like, did you 593 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 2: see this? You should do this. So it was just 594 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 2: a lot of teaching happening. But I had to shift 595 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 2: my mentality as a business owner because he was not 596 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 2: going to happen. I wasn't going to close my business 597 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: because of something that I perceived to be as temporary. 598 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 2: Now when we went into the next year, I was like, oh, 599 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 2: now we don't know when these loans are coming back. 600 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 2: That's when I'm not gonna lie. I think I did 601 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: it a little nervous, but I also was very wise 602 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: with the money I had made. So when I made 603 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 2: money off of digital products, and I think I was 604 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: one of the earlier people doing digital products before everybody 605 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 2: started doing it. Shout out to my friend Nee Maya. 606 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 2: He called me, like, brew up my phone. You gotta 607 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 2: have good friends that blow up your phone. And he 608 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 2: just said to me, he was like, you need a 609 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 2: digital product out of everybody. So when it came out, 610 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,719 Speaker 2: it did really well. I grabbed a couple of properties 611 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 2: and I brought them in cash, and what I did 612 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 2: was I renovated them and I did the Airbnb wave. 613 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 2: Now we knowbing is or is it what it is now? 614 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 2: At the time, people were looking for places to have 615 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 2: like a little escape during the pandemic, So me personally, 616 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: I had to step out of the shelve of the 617 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 2: studalone doctor so that things could be sustainable. And I 618 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 2: wanted to make sure, like my team has been with 619 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 2: me for over five years. At this point, I didn't 620 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 2: want to let anybody go. I don't want to go 621 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 2: look for good people again. So to send some floating 622 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 2: money we call it or just appreciate you money. I 623 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 2: needed to be able to generate that otherwise because the 624 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 2: student loan doctor business itself wasn't doing great in the 625 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 2: last let's say a year and a half, but my 626 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 2: endeavors were doing good. 627 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 5: So when you see October first, twenty twenty three. 628 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 2: You know this is bad to say this, but I 629 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 2: was so excited when it was firm whenever payment. That 630 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 2: is so bad. I'm sorry, y'all. Like when I tell you, 631 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 2: I was like, wait mate, and you know what, I 632 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 2: actually missed our clients and they missed us. So we 633 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 2: are like probably three weeks booked out at this point, 634 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 2: which is a good average. We don't want to be 635 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 2: that far booked out. Shout out to my amazing team. 636 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 2: I'm like, because you know, they work part time.

I don't want that. That is not 645 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 2: my sweet side. Everybody knows what their sweet spot is. 646 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 2: I'm a creative, but I don't want to be a 647 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: manager in that sense. 648 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this, I want to do a loanside. 649 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 4: What's the on ramp program? 650 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 2: So we talked about the on ramp program is the 651 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 2: one that everybody is technically in, whether you exit mean 652 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 2: it or not. You don't got a call for this guys. 653 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 2: If you wish just to say next month, I can't 654 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 2: afford this payment, I'm trying to figure out how now 655 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: to do. You don't have to call them and tell 656 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 2: them the payment just will add up. Now, some people 657 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: can go into forbearance if you want to that you're 658 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 2: not getting behind, but you're not going to be penalized. 659 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 4: Well, how do interest rates work on through the loans, 660 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 4: because I know it's. 661 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 2: Like they're regulated yep. 662 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, but there's different right if it's just federal to 663 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,959 Speaker 4: a loan as opposed to private private. 664 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 2: Okay, So Federal interest rates are regulated and are announced 665 00:31:53,880 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 2: every July. Private loans they're not regulated, and they can change. 666 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 2: It could be whimsic. 667 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 4: Cool, thanks your incommon stuff. 668 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 2: No, the income you could be your credit. Let's say 669 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 2: you missed a payment on your Macy's card. Your private 670 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 2: loan could change your interest rates. 671 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 4: But like for people that's going into college or parents, 672 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 4: what are the best practice is for them to ask 673 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 4: private loans, don't apply for private loans. 674 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 2: So I have a philosophy and people don't like it, 675 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 2: but I'll say it like, don't go to a school 676 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 2: you can't pay for you can't afford. And what I 677 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 2: mean by that is it's like, Okay, if it's in 678 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 2: your plan to use a federal loan, okay, I'm with it, 679 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 2: because there are parameters to keep you safe financially. But 680 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 2: when we start talking about going to institutions that require 681 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 2: you to use a private loan, that may not be 682 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 2: the best choice because that private loan is forever. 683 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 4: So is there any what's the difference between a federal 684 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 4: and private loan? Federal loan just go there. And is 685 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 4: there any instance where a private loan is actually more 686 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 4: beneficial than a federal loan. 687 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 2: I haven't seen it. So federal loans are regulated by 688 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 2: the government. So this is where you have a certain 689 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 2: amount that you can borrow every year, even through grad school, 690 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 2: even through getting like a doctoral program. But this is 691 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 2: to protect you. So for example, when the pandemic had 692 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 2: been we would have never thought we would have had 693 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 2: a pandemic. Right, the government says, we got your interests, 694 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 2: we've got your payment. This is on us. Those that 695 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 2: had private loans, they didn't get a pause. That was 696 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 2: and it was really hard for us to hear those 697 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 2: calls and those cries because there is nothing you can 698 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 2: do when you have a private loan. In that sense, 699 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 2: there's no palls. 700 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 5: So a private loan ernerds, what's up.

Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty 729 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 5: five is a service mark of the PNC Financial Service Group, Inc. 730 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 5: P and C Bank National Association Member FDIC. 731 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,479 Speaker 1: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child 732 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador 733 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with 734 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just 735 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President 736 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: Donald J. 737 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 2: Trump's leadership. 738 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: I'm Christy nom the United States Secretary of Homeland Security. 739 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: Under President Trump, attempted illegal border crossings are at the 740 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: lowest levels ever recorded, and over one hundred thousand illegal aliens. 741 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:56,280 Speaker 3: Have been arrested. 742 00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 1: If you are here illegally, your next you will find 743 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: nearly one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned and deported. You 744 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 1: will never return.

Do what's right. 747 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 2: Leave now. 748 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: Under President Trump, America's laws border and families will be protected. 749 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 3: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security. 750 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 2: Oh, it's going to be beneficial if you have to 751 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 2: close the gap. And I just have to say this, 752 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 2: like if you have to go to that institution, because 753 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 2: a community college or a state college is not going 754 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 2: to calls for you non tiense o't intend to use 755 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 2: a private loan if you want to go to an 756 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 2: Ivy League school, if you want to go to an 757 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 2: HBCU and there's not a scholarship present, yeah, a private 758 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 2: loan closer to gap. 759 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 5: Yeah. So because a lot of I mean even a 760 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 5: lot of the Ivy League schools, the funding from the 761 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 5: government is very minimal. So even I mean at some 762 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 5: of the state schools. Because when we talk about affordability now, 763 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 5: because it's almost like that is the only object, right, 764 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 5: Because when a person fills out the Fasta, let's sit, 765 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 5: theyre a middle class family and you know they bring 766 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:06,240 Speaker 5: in one hundred and fifty thousand. 767 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,320 Speaker 2: We call it the sticky middle exactly. 768 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 5: So people who parents are in that middle class, they 769 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 5: fill out the Fasta right, because in order to even 770 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 5: get the student loan right, you have to fill that 771 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 5: out first. They'll tell you they're giving you nine hundred 772 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 5: dollars a semester, but the tuition is eight thousand or 773 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 5: fifteen thousand, a semester. There's a gap there, and so 774 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 5: this is when now it's like, if I want to 775 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 5: go to school, the options are I got to come 776 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 5: up with this money or take out private loans. And 777 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 5: so is your suggestion all right? Maybe if it's fifteen thousand, 778 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 5: this isn't the place for me. 779 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, the unpopular opinion. And we'll see how these comments go. 780 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 2: I'm going to stand doing don't go, because see, you 781 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 2: got to remember, we're taking calls every day from people 782 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 2: who are crying over decisions that they made ten twenty 783 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 2: years ago that weren't wise. We're taught like you should 784 00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 2: hear how these parents are talking about their kids like 785 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 2: you can hear. Don't go into another room. Or let's 786 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 2: say the kids are grown now and she ain't even 787 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 2: finished and now she want to be a bartender. And 788 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 2: so now even parent plus zones are like the bane 789 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 2: of our existence because it's like the worst federal loans 790 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 2: possible solus. So parent plus loons is when a parent 791 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 2: gets involved and takes out money on behalf of their child, 792 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,479 Speaker 2: but the interest rate is eight percent and they only 793 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 2: have one income driven repayment plan instead of it being 794 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 2: like a five percent margin like we talked about, it's 795 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: twenty percent. It's just the worst plan. It's literally like 796 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 2: a private loan. Again, it's just protected and things of 797 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 2: like a pandemic. Right, But to hear the calls that 798 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 2: we take like somebody, this is true story. Oh but 799 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:48,479 Speaker 2: I was so happy he just got forgiven. He had 800 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,760 Speaker 2: three hundred thousand and parent plus loans. He has three 801 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:57,280 Speaker 2: kids that went to Ivy League educations. He's a doctor, 802 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 2: so he thought that I can do it because I'm 803 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 2: a doctor. Look, they might want to be doctors, right, 804 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 2: but the bill was on him. So you know me, 805 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,359 Speaker 2: I was like, well, are they doctors? Because these are 806 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 2: older that's why he got them forgiven. He was like no, 807 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 2: I'm like what do they do? And then he was 808 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 2: like you don't want to know. One is only making 809 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 2: thirty thousand year because he's the numbers guy. He's making 810 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty thousand a year. He owes three 811 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 2: hundred thousand. I think he had like fifty thousand is old, 812 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 2: so let's say three fifty. But his kids are making 813 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 2: less than one hundred thousand. This was not a good investment. 814 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 2: But we can't say to our kids, you failed me. 815 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 2: You know, like he can change your minds. 816 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 5: My parents had a parent plus loan. Thankfully it wasn't 817 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 5: all right, Yeah, they got I mean, so the first 818 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 5: two years I went to school again, fast Ford was 819 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 5: like nine hundred dollars and there was that gap. So 820 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,359 Speaker 5: rather than trying to take a private loan, we did 821 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 5: the parent plus loan and it kind of eased the gap. 822 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 5: But then the final two years it was like I 823 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 5: had to do in private because I didn't want to 824 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 5: put more debt on them. That was I've always been 825 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 5: thinking about, you know, my family. Yeah, and so but again, 826 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 5: those interest rates they climb and when you do private, 827 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 5: like you said, it could be anything. It could be 828 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 5: one thing you didn't pay, like you said, your Macy's card. 829 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 5: And now the interest rate that started at five percent 830 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 5: go to like eleven. 831 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 2: For now, I've seen somebody go from nine percent to 832 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 2: nineteen point nine, not much of a difference. 833 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 5: In me, it's crazy. It's crazy. So I mean for 834 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 5: young adults who are sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, well seventeen eighteen 835 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 5: about to go to college, and I know it doesn't 836 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 5: sound sexy, but community college probably the safest and most 837 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 5: financially I'm okay, colleges, stay colleges. 838 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,360 Speaker 2: I'm okay for you to go where you want to 839 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 2: go if somebody else can help pay in terms of 840 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 2: a scholarship. And then the other thing is I think 841 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 2: this is where parents and those that are going to 842 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 2: be parents that are watching this show have to understand 843 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 2: that there is still an accountability there. Like, for example, 844 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 2: what does scholarship Sunday look like at your house? If 845 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 2: your child is in high school, you're probably like, well, 846 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 2: we don't do scholarships Sunday. We want to start so, 847 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 2: meaning you have to sit down with your child and say, 848 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 2: in junior year, not really senior, more so junior year, 849 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 2: what scholarships are we thinking about applying for? Like did 850 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 2: you did you write that? Let's say, can I read 851 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 2: it for you? Because if we don't push our children 852 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 2: to apply and we're not in that as a partner 853 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:21,320 Speaker 2: with them, it will fall back on you as mom. 854 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 5: Or dad or take them to the park. 855 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,760 Speaker 2: And the thing that we see that we're most. 856 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 5: Get a wicked jump shot, right, child had. 857 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,879 Speaker 2: No skills like that? Then that hopefully they're academic. Yeah, right, 858 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 2: Like like for example, I knew I wasn't gonna get 859 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 2: no sports scholarship. That's you know, we're not going to 860 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 2: do that, but I'm smart. Okay. So my mom got 861 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 2: really really sick my junior year, like she almost died. 862 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 2: So the plan, we had a plan. The plan was 863 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 2: she was making at that time. It's just me and 864 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 2: hermone child about sixty five thousand a year back in 865 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 2: the two thousands. That's pretty okay. She's she was going 866 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 2: to send me to a state college. And her plan 867 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,240 Speaker 2: was she was going to make payments for the difference 868 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 2: of whatever I didn't even receive from pastvor right, that 869 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 2: was we had a plan. Well, when she got sick 870 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 2: and lost her hearing, she had to retire early as 871 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 2: a teacher. The plan is now going. So I was like, 872 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 2: but the plan ain't here to stay in Philly. So 873 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 2: I had to do what apply for every scholarship known 874 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 2: to men. I can remember the day I knocked on 875 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 2: my principal's door and I was like, whatever scholarships I 876 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 2: can be considered for, I need to be considered. They 877 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 2: all knew what was happening with my mom. I went 878 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 2: to a small high school, so on graduation day I 879 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: left with seventeen thousand in scholarships. When I got to school. 880 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 2: It didn't stop. Somebody still got paid for this. I 881 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,399 Speaker 2: knocked on every door there was before websites, and I'm 882 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 2: not that old, but I just knew. I think people 883 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 2: know you better every dean's story. I'm not making this up. 884 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,360 Speaker 2: Had my sneakers on that day and I wind up. 885 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 2: By the end of the day, I was able to 886 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 2: apply for a full ride. So I got that. Oh 887 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 2: but don't stop there because you need pocket money. Remember 888 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 2: my mom is say, I'm not working, she's deaf. I 889 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 2: gotta send money home now because I'm a responsible college dudent. 890 00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 2: Now I got to get the scholarship for the books. 891 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 2: It was a flyer that said, tell us about a 892 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 2: traumatic experience you've overcome to go to college. I've got 893 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 2: several off of Philly. So I wrote that up and 894 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 2: set that in. I got that to fifty. Like when 895 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 2: I tell you, if you talk too loud about a scholarship, 896 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 2: I probably took your scholarship like I was. I had 897 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:18,319 Speaker 2: to graduate. So that and so when so when I 898 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 2: meet students and parents that I don't have that dog 899 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 2: or that understanding, I'm like, you gotta have some money 900 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 2: tuck aside because it went from my mind with a 901 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 2: game plan to us having to rely on my grandmother, 902 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 2: who was a retired school teacher. Her retirement probably paid 903 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 2: forty three people on forty k. It's not gonna put 904 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 2: somebody through college, even after that little loan they give you. 905 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 2: My mommy had no credit. Again, she's not working. So 906 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 2: it was just so much. I remember that experience, so 907 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 2: when I talked to students, like if I go to 908 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 2: a high school, for example, or I'm speaking to a 909 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 2: freshman class in college, I'm gonna give you my story 910 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 2: because something has to change, somebody or something has to 911 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 2: pay for this experience. If you wanted to be whatever 912 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,959 Speaker 2: you wanted to be, that's you're alone that you're about 913 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 2: to leave with. Life in the twenties and thirties aren't 914 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 2: going to be as funny as you think. So because 915 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 2: when it's time to hone by, we didn't even talk 916 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 2: about dating marriages. Like when it's time to sit at 917 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 2: the table, let's say, I'm like like, hey, with Shan, 918 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 2: you know I'm interested with Shad. Got to you this 919 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 2: is good with Sean. With Shy, you didn't do it 920 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 2: all this episode. Can you let the people know why 921 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 2: you're so. 922 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 4: Quiet about loans. Yeah, no, I didn't have to loans. 923 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 2: So if you guys ever go see the first one. 924 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 2: He was like sophomore year scholarship. All right, but let's 925 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 2: just say we're about to date, right, And I know 926 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 2: that you were probably asked or I don't even know 927 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 2: if you ask people this. But at some point the 928 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 2: financial analysts and conservative when you you will want to 929 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 2: have a conversation about debt. But if I'm sent across 930 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 2: from you, no, you got a life story, because it's 931 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:56,319 Speaker 2: gonna even better if you jibing. But like, what if 932 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 2: you wanted to date a girl that had three hundred 933 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 2: thousand loans?

Probably not. 946 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 2: But what happens because my jobs don't guarantee what happens 947 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:26,879 Speaker 2: if I lose my job. 948 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 4: You said dating or married too much. 949 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,799 Speaker 2: I think we should date to marry.

Your dad become their dead? 957 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,799 Speaker 2: Well, it depends on how you were raising what you think. 958 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,879 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna give you a good example. And I'm 959 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 2: only trolling with him for fun, but when I actually 960 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,799 Speaker 2: do appointment, I'm not trying to be funny.

It could affect if 972 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 2: they were during joint taxes taking the taxes. It could 973 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 2: affect the fault. And if you get into what we 974 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 2: call a permanent default, you in default for that hundred 975 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 2: k forever. 976 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,399 Speaker 4: So what happens if you don't pay ste the homes? 977 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 2: Yeah?

Now there's 982 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 2: stages of default. The first time we go in default, 983 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,040 Speaker 2: you can get out. You can do a consolidation. Well, 984 00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,879 Speaker 2: the program right now, if everybody's listening, is called fresh Star. 985 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 2: It's literally one click. You probably will get out a 986 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 2: few months, right, but that's going to go away. I 987 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,440 Speaker 2: think Denise in like a year, one more year. So 988 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 2: when that's done, it's back to what it was before, 989 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 2: which is are you consolidating if eligible or are you 990 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 2: going to do the nine payments could be five dollar 991 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 2: payments on time, you know, I mean people don't make 992 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 2: nine five dollar payments and then they never get out. 993 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:27,240 Speaker 2: So I met a gentleman and I was so excited 994 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 2: when this Fresh Start program came out, he was in 995 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 2: a permanent default. He burned every option to get out twice. 996 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 2: It's two options consolidation five dollars, nine times for forty thousand, 997 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 2: everybody following. So he was in a permanent default for 998 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 2: forty thousand unless he came up with forty thousand. And 999 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:48,800 Speaker 2: they didn't even want to take payments from him, like 1000 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 2: it was bad, like they don't care. At this point, 1001 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 2: he was like I could do three hundred a month, 1002 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 2: we need six hundred, Like they don't have to negotiate 1003 00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 2: with you at that point. So I was so excited 1004 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 2: when Fresh Start came out because he was actually one 1005 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:03,800 Speaker 2: of those people where he literally got what's called a 1006 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 2: fresh start. He's out of the fault. Now if he 1007 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 2: messed up again, then it's his last. 1008 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 4: Well, like what exact, because it's all right, let's say 1009 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 4: child support, right, if you don't pay child support payments, 1010 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 4: you can forfeit your passport. Uh huh, they can take 1011 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 4: money from your paycheck yep, and the worst case scenario, 1012 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 4: then they can put you in jail. 1013 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 2: Yep. So like like what are the re the loans, taxes, paycheck, 1014 00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 2: never able to buy a house. 1015 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 4: So they could they could take they could take money 1016 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 4: out of your paycheck. Yeah, they could take money out. 1017 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 2: Of your taxes, taxes and then home buying for with 1018 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 2: the federal loan product like an faha, bha, No, it's 1019 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:41,720 Speaker 2: a federal loan you right birthday? 1020 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 4: So and are there any student loans that don't require 1021 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 4: credit check for. 1022 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 2: Federal Well, federal loans don't require credit check, let's be clear, 1023 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 2: Like it's almost like the biggest loan that you ever 1024 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 2: get in America without a credit check. You went to school, 1025 00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 2: you're eligible. You have a high school to anybody can 1026 00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,320 Speaker 2: get it if you have a high school diploma. 1027 00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:01,280 Speaker 4: She did. It's limited amounts, limited. 1028 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 2: Amounts, right, protective amounts. It's the credit checks don't come 1029 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 2: in until you're trying to do like graduate plus. 1030 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 4: Loans or private loans. Yeah, you needed for private loans. 1031 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 2: Private loans for sure. Yeah, I'm a true story. Before 1032 00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:16,400 Speaker 2: my credit was good, I had to get a graduate 1033 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 2: loan and it wasn't good, so they denied it. So 1034 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 2: I wrote on the pill and I never forget. Her 1035 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 2: name was Keisha, so I knew she was black. Keisha 1036 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 2: was like, no worries, I got you, and she approved it. 1037 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 2: Shout out to Keisha. Oh she still worked there. 1038 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 5: Because there's no student loans for grad. 1039 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 2: School, well graduate plus loans or private loans. 1040 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:35,839 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, the private ones. 1041 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:37,319 Speaker 2: But they can say no to you. So that's why 1042 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:39,440 Speaker 2: the story was funny. Dang, I'm not going to be 1043 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 2: finish my last semester. And then Keisha, you know, I 1044 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:43,720 Speaker 2: wrote a little letter. She approved. 1045 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:45,720 Speaker 4: So how much money do you need to go to college? 1046 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 2: Well, where are you going? So community college? I guess 1047 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,839 Speaker 2: we were talking about like twenty twenty five thousand. If 1048 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 2: we're talking about state college, is now like sixty seventy? 1049 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:57,360 Speaker 5: Now are we per year? No? 1050 00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 2: Total? 1051 00:49:58,000 --> 00:49:58,720 Speaker 5: Total total? 1052 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 2: Are we talking about private institutions like HBCUs might be like, 1053 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:05,359 Speaker 2: what do you say, like twenty five thirty a year? 1054 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,279 Speaker 2: Probably yeah, And again it's all about your experience. So 1055 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 2: my game plan was I didn't go to a HBCU. 1056 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 2: I went to a predominantly white school. Shout out to 1057 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 2: Bloomsburg University, and they gave me a whole lot of 1058 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 2: scholarship and on the weekends I went to the HBCU. 1059 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 4: So like for parents that has kids, now you would 1060 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 4: say that in order to you if you want to 1061 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 4: pay for your children's education in cash and ten years, 1062 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,759 Speaker 4: Let's say you would need at least two hundred fifty 1063 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 4: thousand dollars on the safe side, because that would probably 1064 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 4: cover a private a top private. 1065 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 2: School, if that's where you want to go. 1066 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1067 00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 2: Now, remember there are certain Ivy League schools that are 1068 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,080 Speaker 2: now saying if you make under I think the number 1069 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:47,719 Speaker 2: is sixty thousand a year according to your taxes, they'll 1070 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 2: give that child a free ride. 1071 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 5: So this is crazy, right, because when you think about 1072 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 5: all types of debt, especially in business, you can file 1073 00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:02,120 Speaker 5: for bankruptcy right Chapter eleven. No, are there any cases 1074 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 5: where student loan can be qualified in that? 1075 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 2: More recently, there have been several successful cases where bankruptcy 1076 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,399 Speaker 2: and federal student loans have happened and occurred. You see 1077 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 2: different politicians and lawmakers advocating for that. So there is 1078 00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 2: actually a and it's so new it's hard to speak on, 1079 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 2: but there is about a fifteen twenty page package that 1080 00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 2: you can fill out to apply for your student loans 1081 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,320 Speaker 2: to be included in a bankruptcy. You have to go 1082 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,320 Speaker 2: to a bankruptcy attorney in your state, and you have 1083 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 2: to go to one that's qualified. And if you are 1084 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:37,880 Speaker 2: asking them questions and they don't even know that this 1085 00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 2: pag exists. Don't pay them, That's my rule of thumb. 1086 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:42,320 Speaker 2: But there are some good attorneys that are up to 1087 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 2: the latest information and it can be submitted. 1088 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 6: Now. 1089 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,479 Speaker 2: This is like as of like the last two years. 1090 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:52,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, because I'm thinking forty three million people in that Yeah, 1091 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:58,360 Speaker 5: repayments are just starting. There's gonna be plenty of forbearance 1092 00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 5: and there'll be plenty of defaults and some people just 1093 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:05,919 Speaker 5: won't be able to pay, and so forgiveness programs are great, 1094 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 5: but everybody won't qualify, No, and so some people are 1095 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 5: going to have to figure out another route. And so 1096 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:12,399 Speaker 5: I could in my mind, I don't know, you probably agree. 1097 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 5: I can see legislation being changed to add this is. 1098 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:19,960 Speaker 2: Actively being work doing. So I saw the package, I 1099 00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:22,239 Speaker 2: was like, oh, this is very so the questions they 1100 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 2: ask for, like tell us about how your student loan 1101 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 2: debt would impact X RAYN like, so you have to 1102 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,440 Speaker 2: have time. You want to get a professional to help 1103 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 2: you answer those questions. And like I said, very rare cases. 1104 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 2: It hasn't been fully publicized, but it is being approved. 1105 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 2: Now we're talking like astronomical student loan debt like four 1106 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:44,680 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty thousand though, so that was one of 1107 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 2: the cases. 1108 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 4: So how does it affect your credit score? 1109 00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:50,719 Speaker 2: Well, so it's still a debt and it's not a 1110 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 2: reviving line. So it's so basically it's like it's like 1111 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,719 Speaker 2: a rock on your credits. I always explain it. And 1112 00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 2: when you start to pay on the principle, like let's 1113 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:02,719 Speaker 2: say eighty thousand, and you put extra money and it 1114 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 2: starts to shrink, your credit score goes up. It's like, oh, 1115 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 2: it's getting paid down. But the moment it comes off. 1116 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:12,200 Speaker 2: So to those of you that all got forgiven, congratulations, 1117 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 2: but we're going to also hear a negative turn in 1118 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:18,760 Speaker 2: the next sixteen to ninety days. Everyone that got forgiven, 1119 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 2: their scores are going to plummet, especially when you talk 1120 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:24,840 Speaker 2: about one hundred and fifty thousand and forgiven, three hundred 1121 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 2: thousand and forgiven. So if they were hoping to hone by, 1122 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 2: it's like, could you do it like today or could 1123 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:35,000 Speaker 2: you wait until you see what your new score is? Thing. 1124 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 4: So when Biden, he tried to have a bigger plan, 1125 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 4: but the Supreme Court blocked it. 1126 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:42,440 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, a couple. 1127 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 4: Months ago, what was that. 1128 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:48,279 Speaker 2: So, but that was all in my opinion, like that 1129 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,479 Speaker 2: was the plan to be blocked. So I'm not a lawyer, 1130 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 2: and I knew that when I read it. When it 1131 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 2: came out, I was like, it's not going to go through. 1132 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 2: We were hoping, we were hopeful, but the legislation that 1133 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:03,319 Speaker 2: were underwe in the proper legislation, it was too much 1134 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:07,759 Speaker 2: red tape, too many opinions, too many signatures needed. So 1135 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 2: the new program is going to come back under nineteen 1136 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:14,320 Speaker 2: sixty five Higher Education Act. That's someone we think is 1137 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,759 Speaker 2: going to be able to be passed under. Because Lyndon B. 1138 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,160 Speaker 2: Johnson already stilled the deal. How much would that Well, 1139 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,360 Speaker 2: you haven't interestingly enough. I know I read it to you, 1140 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 2: but they haven't given our numbers yet, but they have 1141 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 2: been sure to say that if you don't do by 1142 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:31,680 Speaker 2: December thirty verse that f f ELP conversion, they're going 1143 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 2: to exclude about close to ten million people. 1144 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:37,840 Speaker 4: So do you ever think there's a time where it 1145 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:39,360 Speaker 4: just all student loan will be forgiven? 1146 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 2: Why would that be beneficial? 1147 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 4: Well, if people it was a student loan crisis, right, 1148 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 4: and you have millions of people who just can't pay 1149 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:53,920 Speaker 4: their student loans, then that probably will. 1150 00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,720 Speaker 2: Have more of our statistically who can't pay their stuitent loans. 1151 00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 4: Who can't I'm ba low income people, middle class oyer, 1152 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:04,919 Speaker 4: what do they look like? Black people? 1153 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 2: Okay, So here's the thing. When we talk about the 1154 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 2: largest holders of student loan debt, they're African American women 1155 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 2: thirty through fifty five. 1156 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 4: Percentage wise are numbers wise? 1157 00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,880 Speaker 2: Well percentage of the barbers in total? Who owns the 1158 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 2: most in the lone debt, who has the most degrees 1159 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 2: is that group of people. So it's interesting. You remember 1160 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 2: when they were talking about the number of forgiveness they 1161 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 2: were going to give out either ten or twenty thousand. 1162 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:31,000 Speaker 2: Did you ever wonder why they ended at their number? 1163 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 2: So statistically, if they gave out twenty thousand, that cleared 1164 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,800 Speaker 2: the population of white barer, white male barbers. 1165 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, completely the race. Yeah, because the amount. 1166 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 2: That they owe was around under twenty thousand. 1167 00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 5: It was under twenty thousand, So I think the average 1168 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,439 Speaker 5: I remember reading is the average was like sixteen point 1169 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 5: five thousand dollars that they owed. Yeah, that they had 1170 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 5: at twenty deta clear the entire. 1171 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 2: Let's just keep going. I've got time. So now when 1172 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:57,840 Speaker 2: you clear out all of these women, black women with 1173 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 2: student loan debt. And I know that other people have 1174 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:05,360 Speaker 2: student loans that are black obviously, but statistically, now we 1175 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 2: put this population, we know that most agreed. Now they 1176 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:15,560 Speaker 2: can become homeowners. You say, now it changes the whole 1177 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,279 Speaker 2: landscape of Welcome to America. So when you ask me, 1178 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 2: do I think they're going to eliminate? 1179 00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:22,640 Speaker 5: No? 1180 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:27,439 Speaker 4: Why so you think that? Okay, so it's a trap 1181 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:28,040 Speaker 4: pretty much. 1182 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:30,800 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's a trap. What I'm saying is 1183 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,000 Speaker 2: this is where our community when we talk about the 1184 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:34,840 Speaker 2: black community, and I hate to just always take it 1185 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 2: to race, but statistically it's just very glaring. Has to 1186 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:43,000 Speaker 2: be wiser and be informative about borrowing practices. Now, the 1187 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 2: challenge here is is that a lot of times when 1188 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 2: we look at this number, that person's also the first 1189 00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 2: to graduate in their family from college. So we don't 1190 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,320 Speaker 2: want to take the pride away from those numbers, and 1191 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 2: the first to have a graduate degree, the first to 1192 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 2: have a doctoral degree, So we don't want to take 1193 00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:59,279 Speaker 2: any of that pride away. But what I'm saying is, 1194 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 2: youll mom, grandmom, even they said your grandmom. At this point, 1195 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,800 Speaker 2: how do we help your child and your grandchild not 1196 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:10,600 Speaker 2: being that same number in same boat. One of the 1197 00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 2: things that we're concerned about is if we see our 1198 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,359 Speaker 2: clients get out of student loan debt at like let's 1199 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,280 Speaker 2: say age forty forty five, we see that person going 1200 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:18,880 Speaker 2: back to the student loan deb at age fifty to 1201 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 2: fifty five because of parent plus loans, because there's not 1202 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:24,680 Speaker 2: a plan for their child or grandchild. 1203 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, so the plan is really, yes, if you want 1204 00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 5: to achieve the same goal, all for it, how do 1205 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:32,960 Speaker 5: we do it more effectively? How we do it more efficiently? 1206 00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 2: So I really love your platform, right because if somebody 1207 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 2: is a black woman that's thirty five, and she's really 1208 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,080 Speaker 2: tuning the stuff you guys are saying, and she's following 1209 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:45,000 Speaker 2: some of your strategies. She's thinking about real estate, I 1210 00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 2: hate what I you know, use my friend over there, 1211 00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 2: but she has, like we had, like ten properties. She's 1212 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 2: a she's a homeowner, she's a landlord. She's so she's 1213 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 2: changing the narrative for her daughter. So you know, her 1214 00:57:57,480 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 2: daughter shouldn't even have to know what a student loan 1215 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:01,880 Speaker 2: is if we do this right, because there should be 1216 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 2: enough cash low income from her properties, or maybe when 1217 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:07,480 Speaker 2: her daughter goes to school, it's time to sell one 1218 00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 2: that is college tuition. So when we start changing the 1219 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 2: narrative of how we think about our finances and our 1220 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:16,440 Speaker 2: wealth now, then we can set our children and grandchildren 1221 00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 2: up differently. So we don't want to make anybody feel 1222 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 2: bad about what they did or didn't borrow. But what 1223 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 2: I'm saying is is the conversation has to change so 1224 00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 2: that we don't see this cycle keep being repeated because 1225 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 2: I don't think there's going to be a wave of 1226 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 2: forgiveness to help out a significantly group of populations. 1227 00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:38,880 Speaker 5: Such can I go back for just like a second, 1228 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 5: because you said something and I understood from the standpoint 1229 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,880 Speaker 5: of having loan forgiveness and that coming off of you know, 1230 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 5: your debt to income ratio in a sense, and your 1231 00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 5: credit score plumbing right, So most people won't even understand that. 1232 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 5: They'll think, well, it got clear, credit score, short approved, yep, 1233 00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:55,520 Speaker 5: But it really doesn't. 1234 00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 3: CA. 1235 00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 5: Can you just explain why. 1236 00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,280 Speaker 2: There's no more debt to factor? Like, not to be funny, 1237 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 2: you've had that debt probably for over ten years years, 1238 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 2: so it's used to your debt, so now you take 1239 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 2: it off the board, it's like, oh, how do we 1240 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 2: factor that into your mix, into your score? So now 1241 00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 2: when you just take it off the board, and what's 1242 00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 2: going to be a shocker to people the next sixty 1243 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 2: days is it's not gradually paying itself down. It's off. 1244 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 2: So when you held the seven forty, that seven forty 1245 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,120 Speaker 2: might look like a six forty. All jokes aside, because 1246 00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:29,640 Speaker 2: that was a heavy part of your mix. That's going 1247 00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 2: to be going now. Then somebody asks me the other day, well, 1248 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 2: how do I keep that score up? You want the 1249 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 2: real answer. You need a mortgage. You need another debt 1250 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 2: similar to replace it of the same amount. I would 1251 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 2: hope if you would do that, it would be a 1252 00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 2: mortgage and not another student loan. 1253 00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:44,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, you got to balance that out. Yeah. Also, the 1254 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 5: other part is from a tax standpoint. Sometimes when loans 1255 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 5: are forgiven, does that go into your taxable income? 1256 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:54,040 Speaker 2: I seen you bring that up. So it is tax 1257 00:59:54,400 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 2: federally federally tax free until twenty twenty five. This is 1258 01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 2: not a for everything. Oh oh yeah, do explain so 1259 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 2: after twenty and twenty five. That's why it matters who 1260 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:12,240 Speaker 2: gets selected too. That might be texts. These These are 1261 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,640 Speaker 2: what we call provisions. These are not laws. So provision 1262 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 2: is in place until twenty and twenty five to say 1263 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 2: you will be tax free. Let's say Biden gets reelected 1264 01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:24,600 Speaker 2: prosted loan. He might extend it to two thousand and 1265 01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 2: thirty right or whatever his termins, but that's the provision. 1266 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:32,800 Speaker 2: That's that's like president the president. So you got to 1267 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:37,440 Speaker 2: understand the tax laws during that president's era. Certain states say, 1268 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:39,720 Speaker 2: I don't care what the federal government's doing. If you 1269 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,440 Speaker 2: get forgiven for two hundred k, we're texting at his income. 1270 01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 2: So what I would do? So I would probably move. 1271 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 2: There's about thirteen states I think it is, and I 1272 01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 2: don't know them off hand. Just google it and you 1273 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:54,400 Speaker 2: live in one of them, and you know you got 1274 01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 2: that letter. I got to move, Like I don't even know. 1275 01:00:57,160 --> 01:00:58,960 Speaker 2: Like I'm being funny and serious at the same time, 1276 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 2: you're going to get text for that two hundred thousand 1277 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 2: in this example, good to know, Good to know. Yeah, 1278 01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:07,200 Speaker 2: And actually I had a client that was a true story. 1279 01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 2: Like I had a client say she was like, so 1280 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 2: I'm excited. She was like, but one hundred thousand texts? 1281 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:14,880 Speaker 2: She was like in my state, she was like, I 1282 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:16,360 Speaker 2: don't know She's like, I think I need to move 1283 01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 2: back in with my parents. They live and so and so, 1284 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 2: and I'm like, well can you move? Like can we 1285 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 2: put that change of address in? Like can we file 1286 01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 2: taxes at a new address? Because yes, she's gonna get 1287 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:31,200 Speaker 2: text m all right, Well it sounds so heavy today. 1288 01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:32,280 Speaker 4: Then that's a lot. 1289 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 5: It's a lot. My last thing before we go, you 1290 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:38,520 Speaker 5: just talking about scholarships, and I know kids and parents 1291 01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 5: this is so, is there a place that kids can go? 1292 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 5: I remember when you used to go to your guns council, 1293 01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:45,240 Speaker 5: they had this book of all these scholarships. If you 1294 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 5: were left handed, there's a scholarship. Is there one place 1295 01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:49,960 Speaker 5: or a concrete place that they can go for scholarships 1296 01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 5: and grants? Because you know grants don't have to be 1297 01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 5: repeated as well. 1298 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 2: So I mean then there are many places you can go. 1299 01:01:56,920 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 2: It's just hard to shout out places that I think 1300 01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 2: are still rep Like the Scholarly app is one of 1301 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 2: my favorites if it's still around. I know, like college 1302 01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 2: Girl JP, I think it's her name. She's awesome. Let 1303 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 2: me see HBCU Money Guide on Instagram. She is amazing 1304 01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:19,000 Speaker 2: with her work. I tend to post different scholarship strategists 1305 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:21,800 Speaker 2: on my page here throughout because I know that they 1306 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 2: go hand in hand. We don't get into it because 1307 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,160 Speaker 2: it's just we don't have the capacity. What I will 1308 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 2: say is, you know, you want to identify your child. 1309 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:35,080 Speaker 2: If you're a parent watching this, you want to identify 1310 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 2: your child's strengths early on. And that's the scholarship money. 1311 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,280 Speaker 2: We're going to start caring ourselves too, like you're going 1312 01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:43,920 Speaker 2: to know pretty soon is your child sports or academics, 1313 01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 2: is your child techie or not? Because there's so much 1314 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:49,600 Speaker 2: money out there, and there is really a lot of 1315 01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 2: money there. But here's and I do have to say 1316 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:55,440 Speaker 2: this because I used to sit on scholarship committees. Everybody 1317 01:02:55,560 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 2: thinks they're not eligible. Women, young ladies particularly, they always 1318 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 2: think they're not eligible. I never forget. I had a 1319 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,600 Speaker 2: young lady that was trying to go for nursing. The 1320 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 2: requirement was a three point h and some other things. 1321 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:12,120 Speaker 2: She had a way above all the other requirements. She 1322 01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:15,120 Speaker 2: was super active. She had a two point nine. So 1323 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 2: I'm looking at her application, but she didn't do one 1324 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:21,320 Speaker 2: last thing to apply. So I called her personally. I'm like, hey, 1325 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 2: he was Jasmine. I'm like, I need you to put 1326 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:26,920 Speaker 2: this in by midnight. She's like, no, it stead a 1327 01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 2: three point oh. So there's a psychology here that women, 1328 01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 2: even with jobs, they look at one requirement, go not eligible. 1329 01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:37,480 Speaker 2: Men go, I'm about to try anyway. So we would 1330 01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:41,479 Speaker 2: see young men at our committee get scholarships over young women, 1331 01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:44,200 Speaker 2: and I realized the psychology is a lot of young 1332 01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 2: women would think because they missed one thing. So she 1333 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 2: thinks me to this day she got the money it 1334 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:52,479 Speaker 2: was like ten thousand because she just applied anyway. Because 1335 01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:54,040 Speaker 2: now here's what happens with a lot of people don't 1336 01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:56,720 Speaker 2: know behind the scenes when there are private donors that 1337 01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 2: are giving like the three and the five thousands, however, 1338 01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 2: they are asking the committee's opinion. So if I'm looking 1339 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,720 Speaker 2: at Bobby, who has a three point two, but Bobby 1340 01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,920 Speaker 2: joined no activities in school, But I'm looking at Jasmine, 1341 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,120 Speaker 2: who's a two point nine, but she was class president, 1342 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:13,880 Speaker 2: she was this, she was this, she was this, I 1343 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,920 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm probably gonna go with Jasmine because she 1344 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:19,800 Speaker 2: still had good grades and she managed all of this stuff. 1345 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 2: And then Bobby just was in school. So then I 1346 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,120 Speaker 2: have to tell the person who's given the money. My 1347 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 2: professional opinion would be, let's go with Jasmine, because we 1348 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 2: know when she gets to school and becomes an active 1349 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 2: member of her community at school, she's going to do 1350 01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 2: good and still add to the value of their community. Oh, 1351 01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:39,360 Speaker 2: that's a good perspective. Let's give it to Jasmine. 1352 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 5: Shout out to Jasmine. Yep, don't forget to come pick 1353 01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 5: up your pieces. 1354 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 2: Yes, So that's a good example. And that's how scholarship 1355 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 2: the minds of a scholarship committee works. When you submit 1356 01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:51,240 Speaker 2: things like that, especially when they're small and formal, they 1357 01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:54,520 Speaker 2: want to look to see who's really doing the work 1358 01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 2: because it's all about Oh, in schools, this is a 1359 01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 2: good one for schools. Schools want to give money to 1360 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,960 Speaker 2: people that have shown proven history in high school of 1361 01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:06,880 Speaker 2: being active in value members, Like they want to put 1362 01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:09,480 Speaker 2: you on the billboard. So when I went to Bloomsburg 1363 01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 2: and got all of that money, it's because I was 1364 01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:14,320 Speaker 2: a part of everything in high school. So nine times 1365 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:15,600 Speaker 2: out of ten, I'm going to do what be a 1366 01:05:15,680 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 2: part of everything here in college. You can put me 1367 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 2: as an ambassador. You might want to put me up there, 1368 01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 2: like you know, this is how schools think about when 1369 01:05:24,840 --> 01:05:28,800 Speaker 2: they give institutional money, if that makes sense. So my 1370 01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,960 Speaker 2: advice is if you're a high schooler watching this, or 1371 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,440 Speaker 2: you have a high schooler and you look at your 1372 01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:38,040 Speaker 2: child and your child isn't doing anything just going to school, 1373 01:05:38,360 --> 01:05:41,320 Speaker 2: that's not enough. What church committee can they join? What 1374 01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:45,000 Speaker 2: nonprofit can they assist? What do their weekends look like? 1375 01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 2: Are they a leader any capacity? And this is where 1376 01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:50,240 Speaker 2: I say it has to be hands on parenting nine 1377 01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 2: through twelve because you have to make your child go 1378 01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 2: and do something. And I know that we're just like, well, 1379 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 2: he's a good kid, he's just being a house on 1380 01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:58,080 Speaker 2: his phone. Well that's not going to cut it in 1381 01:05:58,160 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 2: this time when we're trying to give our money. 1382 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:04,800 Speaker 4: There you haven't, Well, another great episode, a lot of information. 1383 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:06,080 Speaker 4: How can people follow? 1384 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:08,200 Speaker 2: You definitely spend out of that three hundred k. But 1385 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:12,680 Speaker 2: we're just I gotta learn that tactics. So let's talk 1386 01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:13,880 Speaker 2: about the same play. 1387 01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 5: You a lot now three hundred a lot. 1388 01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:20,720 Speaker 2: You guys got to do a whole episode on it, 1389 01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 2: like a survey question. You can follow me what you say? 1390 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 5: It is real, Like you know, I'm married, so like 1391 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:31,080 Speaker 5: I had that was later on in relationship. It was 1392 01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:32,760 Speaker 5: like what what? How much? How much that? 1393 01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 2: So did you guys talk about it after marriage. 1394 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,520 Speaker 5: Before before before? Yeah, because I mean most people talk 1395 01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:41,360 Speaker 5: about as I had student on that, right, so I 1396 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:43,160 Speaker 5: need to I know what mine is that I'm like, 1397 01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 5: you know what you got, so where you are? So 1398 01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:47,480 Speaker 5: like you know, so we know, and what's going to 1399 01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 5: be the plan how we're going to bring down this that? 1400 01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, so well most people don't talk about it till 1401 01:06:53,960 --> 01:06:57,680 Speaker 2: after surprisingly enough, and then now it don't look so 1402 01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:01,800 Speaker 2: fun to situation. And I do think that people that 1403 01:07:01,920 --> 01:07:04,280 Speaker 2: have three hundred thousand should be able to be married. 1404 01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 2: That's not what I'm saying because I don't feel like 1405 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 2: those trolls. What I'm saying is it's gotta be a 1406 01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 2: plan because if this woman, oh three hundred, I would 1407 01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:19,080 Speaker 2: hope her income would be to the on part to 1408 01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,440 Speaker 2: support that. Maybe she's already a doctor in that case, right, 1409 01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:25,520 Speaker 2: so we know that there's something ambitious about this person. 1410 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 2: Maybe she can hold this job. But if you meet 1411 01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:31,400 Speaker 2: this person that owes six figures and they don't have 1412 01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:34,480 Speaker 2: ambition and they don't yeah, that's a different conversation.
