FTX, Enron & Crypto - A Deep Dive
We’ve all hopped on that crypto bandwagon and we’ve all read about FTX’s collapse as a crypto exchange and its bankruptcy proceedings. I use Enron’s collapse as a canary in the coal mine looking back at what happened in the Dot Com bubble and speak my mind on the $10K forgiveness the Biden admin promised borrowers & voters but of course has fallen short (yet again).

Student Loan Debt: Capitalized Interest
Capitalized interest has been the most profitable way that the federal government has been able to collect on the student loans they’ve serviced. And no one ever tells you this - until it’s too late. In this episode, I unpack my experience with repaying an extra $30,000 of capitalized interest and how I was able to eventually get ahead and get on the road to repaying my student loan debt.

Student Loan Debt P2
The most strategic way you can tackle your debt is to use either the debt snowball or debt avalanche methods - I explain what those are and how the debt snowball method worked for me on my debt free journey. This episode gets real toward the end; it is literally impossible for me to talk about my journey and NOT cry about it. So, grab some Kleenex and take the journey with me!
