Episode description

With Father’s Day just around the corner, Lauryn Williams sits down with Meagan Landress and Rob Bertman to offer advice to dads who are in the process of helping their kids with their student loans—whether by helping to pay them down or taking on the loan in their name altogether.

In today’s episode, you'll find out:

  • When and how to take on a Parent PLUS loan
  • Why you don’t need to pay extra toward your loans if you are going for forgiveness
  • Why it’s more productive to look at your kids’ loans individually instead of equally
  • Why parents should encourage their kids to take some responsibility for their debts
  • About the impact that our consultants’ own dads had on their finances

Like the show? There are several ways you can help!
