My guest this week is Travis Hornsby, the founder of Student Loan Planner, a student loan advisor company.

Behind every great man there’s a great woman, they say. In Travis’s case, the great woman is his wife, a physician in Saint Louis. When they first started dating, she had a lot of student debt. So Travis decided to help her out by making a model of how they can pay off her student debt.

He used all the knowledge he got from bond trading and modeling complex debt instruments and started researching what are the most advantageous choices you can make while repaying your debt.

His then girlfriend, now wife, started spreading the word about what he was doing, so he started helping more and more dentists. He advised about 250 dentists and dental specialists in the past 18 months.

Key takeaways:

  • The grim current landscape of student debt
  • Choose your plan according to your goals
  • The current state of student loans is not sustainable, and that might change
