In this episode of Weird Finance, Paco talks to Dan Rooker about everything you need to know about making your student loan payments. Dan is an expert in the field and will be sharing valuable insights on income-driven repayment plans, recertification requirements, the benefits of consulting a student loan professional and the double-consolidation loophole. We'll also dive into Public Service Loan Forgiveness, the importance of researching career paths before pursuing grad school, and how to navigate the ever-changing landscape of student loan forgiveness programs. Plus, we'll cover the latest updates on the SAVE plan and the forbearance period. So, if you're struggling with navigating your student loan debt or just looking for some expert advice, this episode is a must-listen. Dan Rooker is a CFP®, CSLP® and a Sr. Consultant at Student Loan Planner (@studentloanplanner). Nearly every day, Dan guides borrowers through Student Loan Planner, figuring out how they can tackle their student loans with less anxiety. This is Dan’s version of “surgery.” He also runs Rook Financial, a subscription-based virtual financial planning practice for healthcare practitioners who have student debt, meeting with borrowers monthly to go to the financial gym — and that is Dan’s version of “preventative” care.
