<v Speaker 2>Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security.

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:02.840
<v Speaker 3>Let's say kids are listening to it that's in college,

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.000
<v Speaker 3>or they trying to make a decision, So it's the

0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:07.959
<v Speaker 3>I CR the IV.

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:10.720
<v Speaker 2>I was actually gonna go there.

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:14.679
<v Speaker 4>OK, So the fourth was paid Repay, the IBr and ICR.

0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 4>The reason I found out is because when I was

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 4>trying to get a loan forgiveness plan, I wasn't part

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:22.279
<v Speaker 4>of one of those, right, and so I got declined yes,

0:01:22.319 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 4>and I was like, wait, what is this? And so yeah,

0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:26.480
<v Speaker 4>can you go into the depth of the parameters of.

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:27.520
<v Speaker 5>The each, So let's go through it.

0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:31.160
<v Speaker 6>So Obama, the Obama administration gave us the pay and

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 6>the repay plan. So pay came out first, and that's

0:01:34.240 --> 0:01:37.400
<v Speaker 6>for those that have new loans or newly consolidated loans

0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.920
<v Speaker 6>and the direct loans program, your payment is kept at

0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:44.399
<v Speaker 6>ten percent. Repay came out like because people went off.

0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:46.360
<v Speaker 6>They were like upset, like, so I can't get my

0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:48.720
<v Speaker 6>payments lower. So then they came out what was called

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:51.120
<v Speaker 6>repay that said, if you just have a direct loan,

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:53.920
<v Speaker 6>doesn't have to be newly consolidated, you can get ten

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:57.800
<v Speaker 6>percent too, although more is forgiven over time under the

0:01:57.840 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 6>pay plan than the repay plan. The IBr plan is

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 6>the old fashion income based repayment plan that everybody knows,

0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 6>and anybody listening should check their loans to see which

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:11.560
<v Speaker 6>plan they normally are under. Most people never switch out,

0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:14.320
<v Speaker 6>and they could actually lower their payment by going to

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:15.720
<v Speaker 6>repay from IBr.

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:17.720
<v Speaker 4>So you have based on how much you make, will

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 4>determine how much you're gonna have to pay.

0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:22.520
<v Speaker 6>Yes, okay, so IBr is at a fifteen percent margin.

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:27.200
<v Speaker 6>ICR is at a twenty percent repayment. And if anybody's listening,

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 6>they will write down if they had parent plus loans.

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:30.799
<v Speaker 5>Some time you teach you.

0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:34.560
<v Speaker 6>I want to write out No, I'm like okay, So

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:38.600
<v Speaker 6>ICR is twenty percent. Now, what Biden is proposing is

0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 6>the plan that they're saying that he's coming out with

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 6>will be at five percent.

0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:44.480
<v Speaker 5>So some people are really going to see a good

0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:44.960
<v Speaker 5>win in.

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:46.799
<v Speaker 3>Terms of five percent of.

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:51.320
<v Speaker 6>Your of your expectation to be able to repay back loans.

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.120
<v Speaker 3>So if you borrow one hundred thousand, you only have

0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.040
<v Speaker 3>to pay back five thousand.

0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:57.280
<v Speaker 5>Oh no, five percent of your.

0:02:57.440 --> 0:02:59.280
<v Speaker 2>Your income income five thousand.

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:02.080
<v Speaker 4>So like if somebody had was making a one hundred thousand,

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.079
<v Speaker 4>like with a teacher salary in New York, that could

0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:06.440
<v Speaker 4>happen easily, right, and you have to pay fifteen percent.

0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:09.880
<v Speaker 4>That's fifteen hundred dollars, right, and so like you have

0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:11.959
<v Speaker 4>to make to get the forgiveness of the one I

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:12.360
<v Speaker 4>was singing.

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:13.520
<v Speaker 2>I think it's the.

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:15.960
<v Speaker 4>PSLF right the public service. So if you're a teacher,

0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:18.080
<v Speaker 4>if you're anything in a public service, you can get

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.079
<v Speaker 4>this loan forgiveness. You'd have to make one hundred and

0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:24.280
<v Speaker 4>twenty consecutive payments to qualify for it, and that started

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 4>dates back to two thousand and seven.

0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 2>So this was the problem I ran into.

0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:29.280
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, oh, bet, two thousand and seven, I haven't

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:32.359
<v Speaker 4>missed a payment, and twenty seventeen it was my tenth year,

0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 4>and I was like, oh great.

0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:36.880
<v Speaker 6>So then you need to look into what's called the TEPSLF.

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:39.360
<v Speaker 2>So I did it. I got forgiven for another loan.

0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:39.840
<v Speaker 5>Okay.

0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:42.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So then that's when I started researching. Wait I could,

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:44.480
<v Speaker 4>there's more loans out there for teachers, and so I

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.839
<v Speaker 4>did the Teacher Loan Forgiveness where it was like, if

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 4>you are a highly qualified teacher in the subject in

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 4>five years, and it has to be a title one

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:52.720
<v Speaker 4>school less perfectation.

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:54.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's two different.

0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 6>The podcast so what you say it is, okay, So

0:03:57.680 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 6>let me make your question. Say you got to teach

0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 6>your lont forgive.

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:02.120
<v Speaker 2>This, but did you get the te I did not.

0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:02.720
<v Speaker 2>I did not.

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:04.880
<v Speaker 4>Did you apply yet I did, but they told me

0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:07.720
<v Speaker 4>I wasn't in one of those four qualifying ones. So

0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 4>I wasn't in paid repay.

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.360
<v Speaker 5>IBr Oh wait, no, TE is different than PSLF.

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, no, then I wasn't. I didn't get that. Ye

0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 2>yeh okay, I'm.

0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:18.680
<v Speaker 6>Going to offline show you the other perfect so the

0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 6>government and then money might still be available. They gave

0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:26.240
<v Speaker 6>a window of money for people that like him, had

0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.000
<v Speaker 6>been paying since two thousand and seven, but was on

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.119
<v Speaker 6>a standard plan. Let's say, and he like, I've been paying,

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.039
<v Speaker 6>so why am I not? And I worked for and

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:37.279
<v Speaker 6>so it's under a different program. It's just like a

0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:40.039
<v Speaker 6>spin off of the PSLF. A lot of people don't

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:41.839
<v Speaker 6>know about it. They talked about it one time on

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 6>the news. I'm like, so, so I'll show you where

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:47.799
<v Speaker 6>they're sayt Yeah, last time I checked, there's still money available.

0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:49.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Because it was like a bunch of people applied.

0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:51.280
<v Speaker 4>They had did the ten years, they had one hundred

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.000
<v Speaker 4>and twenty payments, and I think less than one percent

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:54.640
<v Speaker 4>of people actually God forgiveness.

0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:56.359
<v Speaker 5>So then they told them to go back and apply

0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:58.080
<v Speaker 5>for the second plan. I'm telling you about.

0:04:57.920 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 6>It, but it got confusing and people didn't do they

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 6>closed it, they reopened it. So last time I check,

0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:06.040
<v Speaker 6>I look, literally the other day it's still open.

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Your DM is about to blow up.

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:11.159
<v Speaker 6>Okay, but that's you know, so I have to be

0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:13.040
<v Speaker 6>weirdly knowledgeable about these things.

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.159
<v Speaker 5>And let me be very clear, like I don't work

0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:15.720
<v Speaker 5>for solid man.

0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 6>I don't even like student loans and a concept I

0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.479
<v Speaker 6>like that people that come to us or come to

0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:24.240
<v Speaker 6>me initially can get the help to move forward in life.

0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 6>Because like if you walk away with one hundred percent forgiveness,

0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.159
<v Speaker 6>after that, he gonna be light as a burder around here, right,

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:31.640
<v Speaker 6>And then you want to do something different with your money,

0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:33.279
<v Speaker 6>Like I don't know how much you pay towards your

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 6>student loans out of COVID, but that additional money can

0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:37.040
<v Speaker 6>go to all the things you.

0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 5>Guys talk about rightly, state and investment.

0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 6>But that'd be the number one reason why people do

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:45.320
<v Speaker 6>not get into growing their money because the student loans.

0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 2>That it makes you.

0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:49.480
<v Speaker 4>It can make you sag it right, It can make

0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:51.400
<v Speaker 4>you depressed. It could leave you to a point where

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:52.839
<v Speaker 4>it's like, yo, now I have to live at home

0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:55.040
<v Speaker 4>longer than I expect it. Now I can't afford to

0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:58.839
<v Speaker 4>get a car. Now I can't afford to even being

0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:02.159
<v Speaker 4>a real relationship right because I can't help with you.

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:03.840
<v Speaker 2>I can't I can't get married.

0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:05.880
<v Speaker 4>I can't afford to do it, and so it stagnates

0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:07.719
<v Speaker 4>your life from decision that you made at eighteen.

0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 5>I gotta tell the story.

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.720
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so this is real, and if.

0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:13.719
<v Speaker 6>Somebody's watching, it's gonna understand what I'm about to say.

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 6>So if you are particularly like a black woman and

0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:19.040
<v Speaker 6>you're dating and you got six figures student on that,

0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 6>I know I come up being mine at one point,

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:23.719
<v Speaker 6>like how I'm not going to tell this man, right? So,

0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:25.680
<v Speaker 6>so what happens when I used to do one on

0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:26.839
<v Speaker 6>one appointments in person?

0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:27.599
<v Speaker 5>I missed those days.

0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 6>Those were fun guys who used to book their fiance

0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.200
<v Speaker 6>and girlfriends for like appointments that the girls didn't know about.

0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:36.839
<v Speaker 6>So they were coming like, well where are we at?

0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:40.360
<v Speaker 6>I'm like, Hi, I'm thinking everybody knows. Nobody knows but him,

0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:43.279
<v Speaker 6>And I'm like, so you didn't tell her? He's like no,

0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 6>I'm gonna get some lunch.

0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:46.599
<v Speaker 5>He like just dropped the girl off trash.

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:49.200
<v Speaker 6>She's arms folded, she's tight, and I'm like, oh god,

0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:51.120
<v Speaker 6>you might have like Penny bides at work.

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 5>No, I don't have that at office. So I was like,

0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:54.040
<v Speaker 5>oh okay.

0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 6>So I was like, so here's what's gonna happening to

0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:58.640
<v Speaker 6>growth through your loans? And I said, and to the girl,

0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.000
<v Speaker 6>I remember, she was so upset. She that bad attitude.

0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:02.599
<v Speaker 6>And then I just had to get real for like

0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:04.640
<v Speaker 6>two seconds, you know, I was like, look, so look

0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:06.679
<v Speaker 6>this was about to be I was like, I really

0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:08.640
<v Speaker 6>think that this man likes you. He likes you enough

0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 6>to have booked disappointment. He thinks highly enough of you

0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:14.920
<v Speaker 6>that probably means he may want to propose get married soon.

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:18.080
<v Speaker 6>But he's very serious about his money, and he's not

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 6>going to propose to you unless you tackle your student

0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.840
<v Speaker 6>loan dead. Because I think she told him right. So

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 6>I said, so what we're going to do is we're

0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:26.440
<v Speaker 6>going to put you on this plan. And I think

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 6>she was eligible for PSL left. I said, and then

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:31.000
<v Speaker 6>when he comes back, you're going to tell him the

0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:33.520
<v Speaker 6>game plan, like all excited, enthusiastic, you got it.

0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:34.600
<v Speaker 5>But I don't know, like I just think of a

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:36.640
<v Speaker 5>whole different person. And she was like okay.

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:38.400
<v Speaker 6>So we did work it out. To where a payment

0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:40.720
<v Speaker 6>would be one thirty. She was enrolled on PSL left

0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:43.480
<v Speaker 6>and then you could see his face was like, oh,

0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:45.640
<v Speaker 6>all right, okay, so what you're saying is all she

0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:47.240
<v Speaker 6>got to do is so he was like real light

0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:48.559
<v Speaker 6>after that because it was real tense.

0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.040
<v Speaker 5>And then sure enough, you know, I stopped him.

0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:53.600
<v Speaker 6>I wanted to see, like six months later he proposed,

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 6>but now, like, I don't think he would.

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:57.480
<v Speaker 5>Have not proposed it. Well, we don't know, really.

0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:01.400
<v Speaker 6>But he really needed to feel comfortable. She was on

0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:03.640
<v Speaker 6>top of her loan day, and so it does come

0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:05.920
<v Speaker 6>up in dating and trying to buy them together.

0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:08.760
<v Speaker 2>Student loan doctors, marriage counselor.

0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Salute salute that man. So let me ask you this. Okay,

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:16.360
<v Speaker 3>So me, I'm a slow learner and fortunately I never

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:20.520
<v Speaker 3>had to deal with any of this stuff. So all

0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:22.200
<v Speaker 3>of this stuff is like kind of foreign to me.

0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.600
<v Speaker 3>So for people that you know, might be in the

0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:27.560
<v Speaker 3>same boat as me, and they might have children. They

0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 3>might not affect them, but they might have children. So

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.720
<v Speaker 3>let's try to let's try to unpack this a little bit.

0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:36.200
<v Speaker 3>So it's like all these different loans, which one is

0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:38.600
<v Speaker 3>the best loan to get in? I know, that's like

0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 3>a hard question. But which one is the best loan

0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.480
<v Speaker 3>to get in? And then if you are in a

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:48.160
<v Speaker 3>bad loan, how can you maneuver into a good one.

0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.320
<v Speaker 5>So with the federal government, there's only like one type

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 5>of loan. It's just a federal loan.

0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 6>Right, And so when we have students going to college,

0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.600
<v Speaker 6>was called an award letter. They'll be told if they

0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:01.240
<v Speaker 6>get any grants, any scholarshi, and then on the award

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.960
<v Speaker 6>letter it'll say unsubbed and sub right. And so submeans

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.560
<v Speaker 6>loans that have interests that's paid for by the government.

0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:12.600
<v Speaker 6>Unsub means the interests. You're responsible from day one. As

0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 6>to Howard A. Cruz, parents get jammed up when they

0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:18.120
<v Speaker 6>apply for what's called the parent plus loan. It's like

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:21.800
<v Speaker 6>the double child of student loans. Like it's bad, but

0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:25.840
<v Speaker 6>they really make it to where parents get trapped with

0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:27.160
<v Speaker 6>it's like kind of a private loans.

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:29.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I was just gonna say that's a difference from

0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:31.400
<v Speaker 4>the federal the federal and the privates.

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:33.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, right, And because the interest rate is horrible, like

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:36.920
<v Speaker 6>seven point eight, most times they want you to go

0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:39.880
<v Speaker 6>into repayment right away. They do hit and look at

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 6>your credit, and so they you gotta decide who has

0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:45.199
<v Speaker 6>better credit, mom or dad when doing the application. If

0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:47.520
<v Speaker 6>mom or Dad gets denied, the child can get two

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:51.200
<v Speaker 6>thousand additional per the semester. But if you're going anywhere

0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:53.120
<v Speaker 6>outside of the state school, like if we're here in

0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:56.240
<v Speaker 6>New York, that that money should be enough to cover

0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:59.960
<v Speaker 6>that tuition. But when people go to more expensive school,

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:00.480
<v Speaker 6>what happens?

0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:03.440
<v Speaker 5>What do they got to take out private? Private loans?

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:06.480
<v Speaker 6>And now private loans are really like the depth of

0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:12.440
<v Speaker 6>our economy, particularly for black millennials, because everyone wants to

0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:15.840
<v Speaker 6>go to an HBCU, right, but everybody's not getting full

0:10:15.880 --> 0:10:16.600
<v Speaker 6>funding to go.

0:10:16.559 --> 0:10:17.559
<v Speaker 5>To an HBCU.

0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:20.760
<v Speaker 6>So I see a lot of graduates that come out

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 6>the most they can borrow is fifty seven thousand, five

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 6>hundred undergrad and then they have like one hundred thousand

0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:30.960
<v Speaker 6>and private loan debt. Let me be really clear, one

0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:34.200
<v Speaker 6>hundred thousand private loan is different than one hundred thousand

0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:37.120
<v Speaker 6>federal And the reason that is is because if you

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.440
<v Speaker 6>owe one hundred thousand, your payment could still only be

0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 6>two hundred dollars based off your income and who you

0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:45.000
<v Speaker 6>take care of. But with a private loan, that payment

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:47.240
<v Speaker 6>is going to be one thousand dollars with a period

0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 6>behind it.

0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:51.319
<v Speaker 2>Then the f work comes for bearing. So well, no

0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:53.360
<v Speaker 2>private loan, not with private federal.

0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:57.679
<v Speaker 3>Again, so federal loans, all of these programs, income based programs,

0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 3>all of that, but private loans, there's no kind of

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 3>program to lower the payment.

0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:06.200
<v Speaker 6>No, your lender may have something like naving, may say, well,

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.960
<v Speaker 6>we'll allow you to do something forbearance, but then the

0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:12.000
<v Speaker 6>interest is still capitalizing. The time you come out of it,

0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 6>the payment's now like thirteen hundred a month, so it's

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:17.200
<v Speaker 6>really no relief.

0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:18.240
<v Speaker 5>Now let me say this.

0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:22.000
<v Speaker 6>There are only two states Pennsylvania and Texas that will

0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:25.640
<v Speaker 6>not allow private loan debt to take over your income

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 6>like garnish your wages. But New York definitely, we get

0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 6>a lot of clients that call and crying literally because

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:37.360
<v Speaker 6>they get their paychecks snatched up to twenty five percent. Georgia,

0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:40.280
<v Speaker 6>particularly Florida. I'm just thinking about where we get the

0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:44.520
<v Speaker 6>most costs from with that issue. Boston, Massachusetts. So if

0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:46.800
<v Speaker 6>you're listening to this and you have private loan debt, right,

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:48.760
<v Speaker 6>because I know that's the question that comes up a lot.

0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:51.480
<v Speaker 6>The goal is to get your credit up as best

0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:55.200
<v Speaker 6>as possible so that you can refinance your loans. This

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 6>is the best time to refinance private loan debt. But

0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:02.600
<v Speaker 6>I have an asterisk so because I do believe with

0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:04.679
<v Speaker 6>the Biden administration that there is going to be a

0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:07.640
<v Speaker 6>form of loan forgiveness ten thousand and fifty thousand or

0:12:07.640 --> 0:12:10.840
<v Speaker 6>one hundred percent through the Higher Education Act of nineteen

0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:14.440
<v Speaker 6>sixty five. The President elect is already allowed as soon

0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:17.040
<v Speaker 6>as he takes office. He could just sign it off

0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:18.600
<v Speaker 6>in one stock.

0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:22.240
<v Speaker 2>So that's that's a that's a good point.

0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:24.080
<v Speaker 4>It's still a known that And so those are some

0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:26.960
<v Speaker 4>of the proposals right there is the everybody who has

0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:30.200
<v Speaker 4>student federal student on the outside, we want to confuse

0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:32.240
<v Speaker 4>it with private. They're going to get ten thousand dollars

0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:35.200
<v Speaker 4>if he signs it right or or the other proposal

0:12:35.320 --> 0:12:38.680
<v Speaker 4>is we can do ten thousand for five years, right

0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:41.719
<v Speaker 4>or completely wipe away everybody stood loan his.

0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:44.440
<v Speaker 6>Program ten thousand for five years. That'll just pass probably

0:12:44.440 --> 0:12:46.040
<v Speaker 6>through the Congress in the House.

0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:46.640
<v Speaker 5>That's fine.

0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:49.480
<v Speaker 6>But what we what we know he has the authority

0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:52.240
<v Speaker 6>to do. Every president has already had the authority to do.

0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:55.960
<v Speaker 6>Is literally signed one hundred percent at one point nine

0:12:56.400 --> 0:12:57.120
<v Speaker 6>trillion away.

0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:57.959
<v Speaker 2>So here's my question.

0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:02.200
<v Speaker 4>Right, Let's say, because the average person right has under

0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:04.559
<v Speaker 4>twenty five thirty two thousand dollars and should have loaned that,

0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:09.360
<v Speaker 4>there's no interest being applied right now, only the principle

0:13:09.360 --> 0:13:12.079
<v Speaker 4>you can pay toward that. If we can do it,

0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:13.560
<v Speaker 4>should we pay it off or should we wait till

0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:15.280
<v Speaker 4>the administration to come in and see what happens?

0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 6>So I get that question like almost every day. So

0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:21.360
<v Speaker 6>here's what I would say. There is going to be

0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.640
<v Speaker 6>something coming, and you know a president likes to make

0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:25.840
<v Speaker 6>his mark in the first one hundred days. Yeah, so

0:13:25.920 --> 0:13:28.200
<v Speaker 6>for real, for real, you you could wait, like you know,

0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:28.600
<v Speaker 6>about one.

0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:31.080
<v Speaker 2>Hundred I'm asking for a friend, I'm asking for a front.

0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:32.720
<v Speaker 5>Everyone's watching this like right now.

0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:34.439
<v Speaker 6>You know, by one hundred and thirty days out, I

0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 6>would be on the minimum payment type of situation because

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:39.520
<v Speaker 6>if something did come, let's say the big number that

0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:42.520
<v Speaker 6>the Democrats are pushing him to is fifty thousand, you

0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.800
<v Speaker 6>would have your loans right clear, but you're not getting

0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:47.680
<v Speaker 6>any money back that you put out. So I think,

0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:49.640
<v Speaker 6>you know it's bad to say this out loud, but

0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:52.480
<v Speaker 6>I would probably be a minimum payment to see what happens.

0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Ernest what's going on.

0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:55.680
<v Speaker 4>It's a new year, and guess what we're not doing

0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:59.240
<v Speaker 4>New Year's resolutions. We're doing New Year who's executing? And

0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:02.240
<v Speaker 4>in order to you gotta have the information? What better

0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:05.839

<v Speaker 4>think podcasts about work are boring, and sure they definitely

0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:15.439
<v Speaker 4>can be, but understanding a professionals routine shows us how

0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:19.840

0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:22.400
<v Speaker 4>It's like banking with P and C Bank. It might

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.400
<v Speaker 4>seem boring to save, plan and make calculated decisions with

0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:28.480
<v Speaker 4>your bank, but keeping your money boring is what helps

0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:46.640
<v Speaker 2>Sit on the side, y'all so unloaded.

0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:49.160
<v Speaker 3>Let me ask you this as far as all right, so,

0:17:49.960 --> 0:17:52.399
<v Speaker 3>I guess the best student loan to get in is

0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:55.639
<v Speaker 3>a federal loan out of private loan, Yes, the best one.

0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:58.480
<v Speaker 3>So when you get in, So those options are just

0:17:58.560 --> 0:18:02.000
<v Speaker 3>repayment options, like only one federal student loan, right, it's

0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:03.680
<v Speaker 3>not like different types of federal loans.

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:05.000
<v Speaker 5>No, it's just one type of federal loan.

0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:07.000
<v Speaker 6>The other federal loans that they used to have, which

0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:09.480
<v Speaker 6>are called f f EL or f f E, l

0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:16.040
<v Speaker 6>P or Perkins loans, Yeah, those are more so with colleges.

0:18:16.160 --> 0:18:19.080
<v Speaker 6>Universities would give out on behalf of the government. Those

0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:22.040
<v Speaker 6>loans and programs have stopped. If you are listening to

0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:24.320
<v Speaker 6>this and you have an f f EL or f

0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:27.080
<v Speaker 6>f E l P or Perkins loan. You should look

0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:31.200
<v Speaker 6>into consolidating your loans into the direct loans program so

0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:34.560
<v Speaker 6>that you can take advantage of any forgiveness that's coming,

0:18:34.960 --> 0:18:39.080
<v Speaker 6>because this current administration does not get paid or even

0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:42.240
<v Speaker 6>the Cares Act. If you had a loan that wasn't

0:18:42.240 --> 0:18:44.160
<v Speaker 6>a direct loan, even in the Cares Act, they didn't

0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:45.920
<v Speaker 6>pay for your loans right now and they didn't cover

0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:48.960
<v Speaker 6>your loan deck. So you probably want to look into

0:18:49.040 --> 0:18:50.640
<v Speaker 6>consolidation and see if it's a good fit.

0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:53.600
<v Speaker 4>So, I mean it puts especially parents, you know who

0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:57.280
<v Speaker 4>come from working class you know homes, because a lot

0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 4>of times when you apply for student loans and your

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:02.080
<v Speaker 4>parents to make a certain amount or a decent living,

0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:04.440
<v Speaker 4>you're not going to get any right most times, Like

0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:07.400
<v Speaker 4>I remember applying for pseudent loans and I got like

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.240
<v Speaker 4>two hundred and forty six dollars. I'm like, this is

0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:12.440
<v Speaker 4>like one book, and so it forces you almost to say,

0:19:12.440 --> 0:19:13.520
<v Speaker 4>like I got to take out this loan and I

0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:14.680
<v Speaker 4>got to go to private route.

0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:17.280
<v Speaker 2>So what are we doing those scenarios? Is it just

0:19:17.320 --> 0:19:19.920
<v Speaker 2>like try your basket scholarships or look for grants.

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:21.640
<v Speaker 6>What are we supposed to do so a student going

0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:24.399
<v Speaker 6>into college. Yeah, right, So a couple of things. If

0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:26.240
<v Speaker 6>you're a student listening to this, I know you guys

0:19:26.320 --> 0:19:28.240
<v Speaker 6>do have a good audience that's younger.

0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:31.480
<v Speaker 5>You know, I believe it what's called scholarship Sundays. So

0:19:31.840 --> 0:19:33.440
<v Speaker 5>I would recommend.

0:19:32.920 --> 0:19:37.480
<v Speaker 6>That started sophomore in junior year, you start looking for

0:19:37.480 --> 0:19:40.040
<v Speaker 6>the scholarships you're gonna apply to most times.

0:19:39.760 --> 0:19:40.640
<v Speaker 5>In junior year.

0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.399
<v Speaker 6>Right, And the challenge where all of this is and

0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:46.960
<v Speaker 6>what it comes down to is as parents, we don't

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:51.200
<v Speaker 6>prepare weld enough. And by no fault to anybody listening, like,

0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:54.040
<v Speaker 6>don't feel bad that you didn't prepare, but just know

0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:57.760
<v Speaker 6>that this generation right here, the millennial generation, has to

0:19:57.800 --> 0:19:59.880
<v Speaker 6>be the one that ends student loan. That like, first,

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:02.719
<v Speaker 6>if you're listening to your podcast and they're listening, they

0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:05.280
<v Speaker 6>shouldn't even be thinking about their child having to take

0:20:05.280 --> 0:20:07.879
<v Speaker 6>off SOT loans, Like that's kind of true. Did everything

0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:09.480
<v Speaker 6>you guys teach in terms of well field?

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:11.920
<v Speaker 4>We just had this conversation of the night, like whose

0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:12.840
<v Speaker 4>responsibility is it?

0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:16.359
<v Speaker 2>Is it the left? The parents are acting preparation issue looking.

0:20:18.480 --> 0:20:19.960
<v Speaker 4>We first, like, so a lot of us are first

0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.920
<v Speaker 4>generation college graduates and so like our parents. My parents

0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:24.800
<v Speaker 4>are not from this country. They didn't they don't know

0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:26.639
<v Speaker 4>these things. And so like now I'm looking at my

0:20:26.680 --> 0:20:29.320
<v Speaker 4>responsibility for my children. It's like, we don't We're never

0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:29.800
<v Speaker 4>gonna have to.

0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:31.760
<v Speaker 3>Say so, all right, so let me ask you this

0:20:31.840 --> 0:20:33.440
<v Speaker 3>because fortunately, like I said, I don't have to go

0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:35.119
<v Speaker 3>through this process because I played basketball and I had

0:20:35.119 --> 0:20:35.680
<v Speaker 3>a scholarships.

0:20:35.880 --> 0:20:42.440
<v Speaker 2>He's a scholarship. I'm not a little different. That's what

0:20:42.520 --> 0:20:44.280
<v Speaker 2>you don't got student loans. That that's what you look like.

0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:48.760
<v Speaker 5>Girls right now over there.

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:50.560
<v Speaker 2>He's like, what is this? F h A you're talking

0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:51.160
<v Speaker 2>about Troy.

0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:52.560
<v Speaker 3>You got to work on your jump shot.

0:20:55.920 --> 0:20:59.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I had scholarships in college. Can I be believe

0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.320
<v Speaker 6>really honest with you, I just didn't have guidance to

0:21:02.359 --> 0:21:04.359
<v Speaker 6>tell me then not take out the refund check.

0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:05.840
<v Speaker 5>So I didn't have a lot.

0:21:06.359 --> 0:21:08.760
<v Speaker 6>Gonna be real, like, in college, Yo, I was living.

0:21:09.920 --> 0:21:13.040
<v Speaker 6>I'm living good now, but in college I was living

0:21:13.119 --> 0:21:14.080
<v Speaker 6>right under this level.

0:21:14.119 --> 0:21:15.840
<v Speaker 4>And I know that's not weird, but I had a

0:21:15.880 --> 0:21:17.920
<v Speaker 4>full ride.

0:21:18.160 --> 0:21:21.320
<v Speaker 6>Nobody as a young black kid, somebody saying, come to

0:21:21.359 --> 0:21:25.040
<v Speaker 6>the bursar's office and pick up five thousand every semester.

0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:30.359
<v Speaker 6>What true religious yo, I listen, true religious if you

0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:32.280
<v Speaker 6>was my friend, I got you up here. I didn't

0:21:32.280 --> 0:21:34.240
<v Speaker 6>want to walk on campus and we didn't look far together.

0:21:34.600 --> 0:21:37.480
<v Speaker 6>We're not eating campus food. We're gonna run lobster and

0:21:37.520 --> 0:21:39.080
<v Speaker 6>I'm like the first ha of card you a college

0:21:39.119 --> 0:21:40.920
<v Speaker 6>was so fun. But that's because I had a lot

0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:43.919
<v Speaker 6>of money coming in from scholarships that the refunds that

0:21:44.000 --> 0:21:46.040
<v Speaker 6>I did take was like play money because I didn't

0:21:46.119 --> 0:21:46.840
<v Speaker 6>understand them.

0:21:47.359 --> 0:21:50.240
<v Speaker 5>If that makes sense. Yeah, Like Sundays we're all here

0:21:50.280 --> 0:21:50.920
<v Speaker 5>eating bread.

0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Yo, it was made over head.

0:21:53.520 --> 0:21:55.080
<v Speaker 5>You know, if I had real friends.

0:21:55.680 --> 0:21:57.560
<v Speaker 6>I kind of brought a lot of friendships because I

0:21:57.720 --> 0:22:00.280
<v Speaker 6>I've always been very generous and I have a hard

0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:02.760
<v Speaker 6>if I eat, you eat, That's how I feel.

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:04.679
<v Speaker 5>And it used to be to the point look at

0:22:04.720 --> 0:22:05.360
<v Speaker 5>the Brian's like.

0:22:05.480 --> 0:22:09.399
<v Speaker 6>You said yes yeah, So like on Sundays, it's like

0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:10.120
<v Speaker 6>so digress.

0:22:10.200 --> 0:22:12.159
<v Speaker 5>But like I was like, all right, I'm cooking. I

0:22:12.240 --> 0:22:12.720
<v Speaker 5>not a cook.

0:22:12.920 --> 0:22:15.679
<v Speaker 6>I'm like, if you want to contribute to stories, I'm like,

0:22:16.040 --> 0:22:18.240
<v Speaker 6>put the pack of fish with your name on the

0:22:18.280 --> 0:22:19.880
<v Speaker 6>city so I know that you can come back.

0:22:19.960 --> 0:22:21.840
<v Speaker 5>Because they would drop up all types of food. Ah,

0:22:21.880 --> 0:22:23.879
<v Speaker 5>My guy friends and a lot of guyfriends like you

0:22:23.880 --> 0:22:25.760
<v Speaker 5>could do five fishes dropped off at the door.

0:22:27.600 --> 0:22:30.679
<v Speaker 3>Like that, and all that I needed you In college

0:22:31.600 --> 0:22:35.399
<v Speaker 3>I had. I had just this a true story. I

0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:37.840
<v Speaker 3>know one year, for one year straight, I ate tuna

0:22:37.880 --> 0:22:39.080
<v Speaker 3>fish every day for one year.

0:22:39.440 --> 0:22:40.480
<v Speaker 5>I feel one year straight.

0:22:40.600 --> 0:22:43.359
<v Speaker 6>Eight mom and noodles, And imagine that wall being stacked

0:22:43.400 --> 0:22:44.360
<v Speaker 6>up with roma noodles.

0:22:44.520 --> 0:22:47.800
<v Speaker 5>Beef shrimp you want today, I don't want that.

0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:51.080
<v Speaker 2>I was like, we got options, beef oil.

0:22:51.720 --> 0:22:53.400
<v Speaker 3>I haven't had to fish, and I still eat it

0:22:53.600 --> 0:22:55.199
<v Speaker 3>every once in a while, but now I eat it

0:22:55.200 --> 0:22:58.000
<v Speaker 3>in a salad. I was eating on a sandwich like

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:00.639
<v Speaker 3>playing jacked up. No, you know, think about it is

0:23:00.640 --> 0:23:03.919
<v Speaker 3>playing sports. So so my first two years was in Maryland.

0:23:03.960 --> 0:23:07.119
<v Speaker 3>My next two years was in Hawaii. So Maryland, the

0:23:07.200 --> 0:23:11.240
<v Speaker 3>scholarship included just the cafeteria, food and dorm rooms and

0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:13.920
<v Speaker 3>all that. When I went to Hawaii, everything was paid for,

0:23:14.040 --> 0:23:15.439
<v Speaker 3>but they gave me a check. They gave me a

0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:17.280
<v Speaker 3>check for like six thousand dollars, and then that was

0:23:17.320 --> 0:23:20.560
<v Speaker 3>to pay for my off campus apartment, pay for food

0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:23.240
<v Speaker 3>and all of that. So I was on my own.

0:23:23.240 --> 0:23:24.800
<v Speaker 3>So I was just going grocery shopping. But I ain't

0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:26.000
<v Speaker 3>I didn't know how to cook. I had a form

0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:27.400
<v Speaker 3>and grow. I was just putting anything on the form

0:23:27.440 --> 0:23:30.040
<v Speaker 3>and grow, and then I was just making friends.

0:23:31.040 --> 0:23:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we love it that we was. I mean we

0:23:33.040 --> 0:23:33.920
<v Speaker 2>eleven hours away.

0:23:34.560 --> 0:23:39.679
<v Speaker 3>It was back in New York. So yeah, so you

0:23:39.720 --> 0:23:42.400
<v Speaker 3>know it was it was tough, but we made it through.

0:23:42.720 --> 0:23:44.080
<v Speaker 3>We made it through. We made it through.

0:23:47.160 --> 0:23:51.480
<v Speaker 4>You see what I'm saying that you could put tune

0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:53.040
<v Speaker 4>in your salad when you got to pray student looe.

0:23:54.240 --> 0:23:55.960
<v Speaker 3>So so let me ask you this. So yeah, so

0:23:56.240 --> 0:23:59.040
<v Speaker 3>as far as parents, right, it's interesting what you just said.

0:23:59.080 --> 0:24:01.000
<v Speaker 3>You said, if they listen to this, they shouldn't even

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:04.240
<v Speaker 3>be worried about that. So what is your advice for parents? Like,

0:24:04.320 --> 0:24:08.679
<v Speaker 3>because it's like, all right, do it? So if they

0:24:08.720 --> 0:24:12.480
<v Speaker 3>can't afford to send their kids to college, right, should

0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:15.680
<v Speaker 3>they just go community college and then state school and

0:24:15.800 --> 0:24:19.359
<v Speaker 3>just only do federal Like should they never do? At

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:21.720
<v Speaker 3>what point does it make sense to do student loans?

0:24:21.840 --> 0:24:23.560
<v Speaker 3>Or does it really make sense to do student loans?

0:24:23.600 --> 0:24:25.600
<v Speaker 6>So I'm licensed, but not a licensed in this section,

0:24:25.640 --> 0:24:27.800
<v Speaker 6>so I'm going to teater lightly, but I think it

0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:30.400
<v Speaker 6>would be best to be everyone to google the five

0:24:30.480 --> 0:24:32.720
<v Speaker 6>to nine plan in their state and then talk to

0:24:32.720 --> 0:24:35.119
<v Speaker 6>a licensed professional that can talk to you about a

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:38.040
<v Speaker 6>five to nine plan, because if you are I call

0:24:38.119 --> 0:24:40.320
<v Speaker 6>what's called the sticky middle middle classes, what's called the

0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:43.119
<v Speaker 6>sticky middle not enough to get a full grant ride,

0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:47.040
<v Speaker 6>but not wealthy enough to pay out a pocket right,

0:24:47.240 --> 0:24:49.240
<v Speaker 6>So that sticky middle is that's where a lot of

0:24:49.280 --> 0:24:51.679
<v Speaker 6>people suffer. They're like, oh, you should be able to

0:24:51.720 --> 0:24:55.600
<v Speaker 6>contribute to your child's education, and most people can't. So

0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:58.240
<v Speaker 6>what happens is the student loan, that the private loan,

0:24:58.280 --> 0:25:00.480
<v Speaker 6>that the parent plus loan that comes into place. But

0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:02.720
<v Speaker 6>there is something called really a big proponent a fan

0:25:02.800 --> 0:25:05.280
<v Speaker 6>of called the five to nine plan, where someone that

0:25:05.320 --> 0:25:08.280
<v Speaker 6>has a child early on or a grandchild can start

0:25:08.320 --> 0:25:11.639
<v Speaker 6>to contribute to their child's education. And we can have

0:25:11.680 --> 0:25:14.200
<v Speaker 6>a five to nine party every year or on the birthday.

0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:16.960
<v Speaker 6>So I know a few people that their child at

0:25:17.000 --> 0:25:20.440
<v Speaker 6>age nine has their college fully paid for at today's prices.

0:25:20.520 --> 0:25:22.919
<v Speaker 2>So the five to nine party, no gifts, would just

0:25:22.920 --> 0:25:24.040
<v Speaker 2>contributed to the plane.

0:25:24.119 --> 0:25:26.720
<v Speaker 6>Bringing it like you can a deposit, or you can

0:25:26.800 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 6>just bring a twenty like that.

0:25:28.040 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 3>You can write a check too, check book. The five

0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:32.719
<v Speaker 3>twenty nine spoke a few times on the podcast. All right,

0:25:32.760 --> 0:25:35.199
<v Speaker 3>so you so your philosophy is like you should be

0:25:35.200 --> 0:25:38.360
<v Speaker 3>playing to pay for college. Don't rely on because you.

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:41.280
<v Speaker 6>Know that our culture and when I say our African Americans,

0:25:41.640 --> 0:25:44.320
<v Speaker 6>we don't believe in picking up the tap for our

0:25:44.440 --> 0:25:47.200
<v Speaker 6>kids in this extent. But in other cultures, like I've

0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:49.880
<v Speaker 6>been studying this, it is expected that the.

0:25:49.920 --> 0:25:50.840
<v Speaker 5>Parent pays for that.

0:25:51.160 --> 0:25:51.879
<v Speaker 3>It's like a wedding.

0:25:52.080 --> 0:25:54.159
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but in our culture, what do we pay for? Right?

0:25:54.320 --> 0:25:57.320
<v Speaker 2>We pay it all prom oh ah, yeah, problems we do.

0:25:57.320 --> 0:26:00.600
<v Speaker 5>That any weddings, right car, baby child's baby.

0:26:00.359 --> 0:26:04.280
<v Speaker 2>Shower, shower we get. The more baby showers and weddings,

0:26:05.040 --> 0:26:05.720
<v Speaker 2>that's the fun.

0:26:05.840 --> 0:26:11.119
<v Speaker 3>Right, shirt, the Birdberry shirt was a staple at a

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:11.760
<v Speaker 3>baby shower.

0:26:11.800 --> 0:26:14.680
<v Speaker 2>That's how you know who the father was with the

0:26:14.680 --> 0:26:17.480
<v Speaker 2>Birdberry shirt. That's h you know.

0:26:17.520 --> 0:26:20.720
<v Speaker 4>You know what also too, and to go along with that,

0:26:21.440 --> 0:26:23.520
<v Speaker 4>is that we got to change the stigma on community college.

0:26:23.600 --> 0:26:24.960
<v Speaker 2>Yes, especially in New York.

0:26:25.000 --> 0:26:28.159
<v Speaker 4>Man, it's like people feel like, oh, I feel like

0:26:28.200 --> 0:26:29.080
<v Speaker 4>I'm not going anywhere.

0:26:29.320 --> 0:26:29.560
<v Speaker 5>Great.

0:26:29.920 --> 0:26:33.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Like number one, if you get if you're getting

0:26:33.840 --> 0:26:36.040
<v Speaker 4>a level arts degree, it won't matter because you're gonna

0:26:36.040 --> 0:26:37.160
<v Speaker 4>be able to he's dying.

0:26:39.440 --> 0:26:39.960
<v Speaker 2>It won't matter.

0:26:40.000 --> 0:26:42.160
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you can still transfer after two years plus

0:26:42.160 --> 0:26:44.919
<v Speaker 4>you're gonna save yourself maybe fifty to one hundred thousand

0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:46.120
<v Speaker 4>dollars by just staying home.

0:26:46.359 --> 0:26:46.800
<v Speaker 2>You know what I mean.

0:26:46.840 --> 0:26:48.760
<v Speaker 4>You're not paying room and board, You're still eating that home.

0:26:48.960 --> 0:26:50.399
<v Speaker 4>Here's the stigma is crazy.

0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:54.040
<v Speaker 6>I'm a reformed college professor, right, and I could see

0:26:54.040 --> 0:26:55.919
<v Speaker 6>each at a community college or I could see each

0:26:55.960 --> 0:26:59.040
<v Speaker 6>at a private institution. It was the same class, the

0:26:59.119 --> 0:27:02.359
<v Speaker 6>same textbook. I just got paid a little different. But

0:27:02.440 --> 0:27:05.160
<v Speaker 6>the students were paying at the community college to see

0:27:05.200 --> 0:27:07.919
<v Speaker 6>me on Tuesday three hundred dollars. At the private college,

0:27:07.920 --> 0:27:13.520
<v Speaker 6>they were paying sixteen hundred class, same professor, same book.

0:27:14.160 --> 0:27:15.560
<v Speaker 5>Just catch me on a different show.

0:27:16.040 --> 0:27:20.440
<v Speaker 3>And once you it's like if you have a bachelor's

0:27:20.480 --> 0:27:23.040
<v Speaker 3>degree and he went to community college, they don't count

0:27:23.040 --> 0:27:25.200
<v Speaker 3>your associate The only thing that masteres your bachelor's degree.

0:27:25.280 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 3>If you have a master's degree, the only thing that

0:27:27.119 --> 0:27:28.800
<v Speaker 3>really manages your master's degree. So like a lot of

0:27:28.800 --> 0:27:30.680
<v Speaker 3>people even think like the first four years if you

0:27:30.760 --> 0:27:32.479
<v Speaker 3>want to, if you know you're going to be a doctor,

0:27:32.920 --> 0:27:35.160
<v Speaker 3>like go to a good undergrad but don't spend all

0:27:35.160 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 3>of your money on it like because your master's program

0:27:37.600 --> 0:27:39.159
<v Speaker 3>is gonna be more important. Like, you know, who went

0:27:39.160 --> 0:27:43.760
<v Speaker 3>to community college? Barack Obama, No, nobody knows that because

0:27:43.800 --> 0:27:46.280
<v Speaker 3>they only look at Harvard. I think he went to

0:27:46.400 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 3>where do you go before Harvard? Columbia? He went to Columbia,

0:27:49.040 --> 0:27:51.600
<v Speaker 3>and he went to Harvard. So it's like they only

0:27:51.600 --> 0:27:53.239
<v Speaker 3>look at that part of it, but they didn't look

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:56.320
<v Speaker 3>at the two years he spent in community college. Nobody cares.

0:27:56.640 --> 0:27:58.640
<v Speaker 3>But now it's two years that you're going for next

0:27:58.640 --> 0:28:02.600
<v Speaker 3>to nothing, and a lot of kids aren't mature enough

0:28:02.600 --> 0:28:04.320
<v Speaker 3>to actually go away from home and they make a

0:28:04.359 --> 0:28:06.040
<v Speaker 3>lot of mistakes. So that's like, you know, it's the

0:28:06.359 --> 0:28:09.800
<v Speaker 3>time to actually develop and grow as a person, and

0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:12.360
<v Speaker 3>now you got two years on your belt, and now

0:28:12.359 --> 0:28:13.679
<v Speaker 3>you can get another two years if you want.

0:28:13.720 --> 0:28:14.639
<v Speaker 5>I'm gon be honest with you.

0:28:14.720 --> 0:28:18.320
<v Speaker 6>With COVID, I would be pissed if I was paying

0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:21.600
<v Speaker 6>that tuition and I'm home with my friend that's home

0:28:21.960 --> 0:28:27.120
<v Speaker 6>on the same platform paying way less tuition, Like that's crazy,

0:28:27.200 --> 0:28:30.119
<v Speaker 6>Like I would be enrolling and switching over to another school,

0:28:30.160 --> 0:28:31.120
<v Speaker 6>like personally.

0:28:30.720 --> 0:28:32.480
<v Speaker 3>So let me ask you this. As far as forbearans,

0:28:33.119 --> 0:28:37.240
<v Speaker 3>there's general forbearance and administrative forbearans. What is the difference

0:28:37.320 --> 0:28:38.120
<v Speaker 3>between those two?

0:28:38.240 --> 0:28:40.480
<v Speaker 5>So general for baras. I'll give you example.

0:28:40.520 --> 0:28:42.480
<v Speaker 6>It's like when you need to call your Linden like,

0:28:43.080 --> 0:28:45.720
<v Speaker 6>I don't got it, Like, so thirty six months in

0:28:45.760 --> 0:28:48.360
<v Speaker 6>the lifetime of your loan that you can just extend

0:28:48.360 --> 0:28:51.720
<v Speaker 6>in no questions asked. Then you have what's called administrative

0:28:51.720 --> 0:28:55.360
<v Speaker 6>for barents from the government for whatever they determined as

0:28:55.360 --> 0:28:59.680
<v Speaker 6>a permissible reason they can cover your interests, right. And

0:28:59.720 --> 0:29:02.880
<v Speaker 6>then you have what's called economic deferment. That's when people

0:29:02.880 --> 0:29:04.400
<v Speaker 6>don't know about this one, but that's when you get

0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:07.080
<v Speaker 6>laid off or you lost your job. You have some

0:29:07.120 --> 0:29:11.040
<v Speaker 6>paperwork that says that instead of using your general forbearance moms,

0:29:11.080 --> 0:29:13.480
<v Speaker 6>you want to use your economic deferment. Or if you

0:29:13.560 --> 0:29:16.680
<v Speaker 6>live in an area that has really bad weather like

0:29:16.800 --> 0:29:20.239
<v Speaker 6>hurricanes and so forth, there's weather related deferments too that

0:29:20.280 --> 0:29:22.600
<v Speaker 6>people can get so that you don't have to again

0:29:22.720 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 6>run through your thirty six months.

0:29:24.160 --> 0:29:26.200
<v Speaker 3>How do you how would you know that?

0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:26.400
<v Speaker 4>Do you?

0:29:27.040 --> 0:29:29.520
<v Speaker 3>Like, because I didn't know that? Do you have to

0:29:29.560 --> 0:29:30.320
<v Speaker 3>call your lender?

0:29:30.400 --> 0:29:30.520
<v Speaker 2>Like?

0:29:30.760 --> 0:29:32.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, do you offer weather for a barons? Do you

0:29:32.840 --> 0:29:33.760
<v Speaker 3>offer job?

0:29:34.160 --> 0:29:36.960
<v Speaker 6>Well, it's a government program, but it's again it's not

0:29:37.480 --> 0:29:40.880
<v Speaker 6>fully advertised. See that's the problem again with a lot

0:29:40.880 --> 0:29:44.479
<v Speaker 6>of our lenders in their website. Some websites, some lenders

0:29:44.520 --> 0:29:45.480
<v Speaker 6>is super easy.

0:29:45.240 --> 0:29:46.200
<v Speaker 5>Click here, go here.

0:29:46.560 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 6>Some are like contact that's an ingle hole for what

0:29:49.360 --> 0:29:52.040
<v Speaker 6>thirty minutes and then people just like, oh, forget it,

0:29:52.080 --> 0:29:53.680
<v Speaker 6>I'm not about to pay them now.

0:29:53.720 --> 0:29:55.600
<v Speaker 5>It hits your credit. It's a cycle that happened.

0:29:56.800 --> 0:30:00.520
