Summary

Student loans are a way of life for much of the US American population. Often considered to be "good debt" because the college degree can lead to higher earnings, they are, nevertheless, still debt.

And they're debt that must be dealt with!

My guest today is Jay Fleischman. Jay is a bankruptcy attorney who specializes in handling student loan issues. He's a world-class expert in this space.

You're going to love listening to this show. I took pages of notes during our conversation and I recommend you do to.

We cover:

  • Strategies for dealing with loans that will give you total flexibility with your repayment plans.
  • What to do if you're in default on a loan.
  • Whether it's possible to get out of a student loan with bankruptcy.
  • And more!

Enjoy!

Joshua
