Awesome
I’ve been listening to Travis and the rest of his SLP team for 5+ years and this podcast has saved me a lot of stress and even more financially. So good!

Incredibly useful
I always find the information to be useful and informative. Without SLP I would be left in the dark and I wouldn’t know when to check on my loans or change my payment plans. Travis is well informed and I always look forward to updates from him. The only feed back I have for the podcast is that when Travis is on with another host he often interrupts the other speakers and it’s hard for the others to get a word in.

Invaluable Up-to-Date Info
Travis and his team at SLP Wealth make discussions about complicated tax policy and personal finance comprehensible, effectively interpreting the latest policy decisions and their potential implications for student loan borrowers. I wasn't paid or otherwise incentivized to post this review. But as a government attorney with significant law school debt, I anticipate becoming an SLP Wealth client in the near future.

Educational, please do yourself a favor and follow!
Thank you so much for all the information and knowledge you give for free. You all have helped me traverse this hellish landscape and I’m am so appreciative. You all are the best!

Thank you!
This podcast is a rare gem for anyone struggling with college debt. It’s educational, refreshingly free of hidden sales pitches, and genuinely focused on making a positive impact. In a society where many young people are burdened by crushing financial servitude to exploitative universities, it’s heartbreaking how our system preys on the vulnerable. America can often feel like a relentless, dog-eat-dog machine, but this podcast offers a glimmer of hope and practical guidance amidst the grind.

Student loan comfort show!
This is a great resource for tips and advice about students loans but also finance in general. I wish I had started listening earlier. I also really appreciate the weekly updates in times like this when changes might be coming to repayment. Makes me feel I’m not alone in this.

Very Informative
I started listening just before the holidays and have found it extremely insightful and helpful. Thanks!

Highly recommend
I’m not even sure how I came across this podcast, but I’m lucky I did. Travis and the team have really done a great job of helping me navigate and understand the roller coaster that is student loans right now. Im a 6 figure borrower and their information has been hugely impactful. I’ll be scheduling an individual consult soon but you don’t have to do that to benefit from their expertise.

GO BIRDS!

Usually Helpful… Bring Travis Back
The podcast has gotten a bit off the rails of late. Strange commentary from guests (ie Steve). People list for the latest info on student loans and PSLF. We don’t need to know why Steve doesn’t use a credit card (hint: it’s because the Bible told him not to)… Yikes. Relocate your audience, please. Podcast was better when it was Travis only.

THE BEST
The absolute gold standard of student loan-related podcasts. I listen to every episode and recommend the show highly.

Meh
Very informative, however as much as it’s boasted that you can apply these steps to anyone’s situation, which…I’m sure you can to a degree, I’ve listened to many of these episodes and it is largely focused on people with 6-digit debt, ASSUMING they’re in well paying jobs like medical, or married with dual income, and especially people who qualify for PSLF. For someone like me, 6-digit student loans, stuck in 46k job that ISN’T medical or government or anything remotely PSLF-qualifying, with high bills, I haven’t found anything that talks to people like me. Smart guy, but where’s the help for the: -single -$200k+ debt -$46k gross -living minimally with $180 to live off bi-weekly after bills -standard job; think customer service, not govt or medical or law

A must for anyone with student loans.
Thank you so much Travis and your team for all that you. Looking out for us with student loans, with compassion and nonjudgmental .

Thankful for this podcast!
So thankful to have found this podcast after listening to so many Dave Ramsey rants against PSLF. Ramsey had me terrified with all of his opinions and assumptions about loan forgiveness based on media sound bites. I am going to hang in there as I’m confident I will qualify.

THE source for all things student loans
Travis and team will hook you after you give any episode a listen to. This podcast is thought-provoking and leaves you wanting more. Shame on SLP for making us wait a week for the next episode! All jokes aside, if you have or are interested in student loan content, this is the podcast for you.
amorelitos
Not sure about this podcast.
I’ve listened to the first few episodes and am not sure if I’ll continue. The discussion around the misinformation around the PSLF program in the second episode put the blame on the media...ZERO mention of the bad info given by the student loan services themselves! That makes his credibility questionable in my mind.

Enjoy this weekly show!
As a PSLF disciple and a sometimes feeling misunderstood aggressive retirement saver, this podcast is my favorite weekly listen! I learn something new every week and have encouraged anyone I know who is pursuing loan forgiveness to listen as well! Thank you for your content.

Sorry, not sorry.
I feel like such a nerd for loving this pod SO MUCH. As a FIRE-pursuing Family Med doc with $350+k in loans, it has helped me manage the psychic weight of my debt. Your real talk on depression... retirement... Love it all! Thanks Travis and friends!

Giant Refund on a Big Mistake
Travis saved me a lot of money! I put 6k towards my student loans last month with some money that fell into my lap because I was intending to refinance my fed loans. After spending time looking at Travis’ excel spreadsheet with my partner, we decided that staying on PAYE made more sense for us so I was real bummed about that 6k I dropped. On a recent episode, Travis mentioned we can request a refund on any payments made within 90 days - hallelujah! I got all that money back and put it right into a brokerage (which I learned about in his investing course). So pumped I found Travis and this podcast - he has saved me lots of money and headaches trying to figure this all out!!!

Loved the conversation about the racial wealth gap
Love the podcast and especially appreciated the recent episode with Lauryn Williams. She’s amazing! These conversations around racial inequality are so important. Thank you for including the stats and studies to really being the disparity into focus. Keep up the great work!

Great show!
I look forward to listening to your podcast every week. It helps to keep me on track with my student loan plan and to know that there are many other people in the same situation as myself. Thank you for providing such valuable information. I recommend your show to all my friends that have student loans.
Teresa D. L.
Thank you
After listening to your podcast for several months, I had a consultation with Lauryn in 2019. She gave me the final push I needed to eradicate my credit card debt, organize my overall financial health, and give me professional direction on my hefty student loans as a speech-language pathologist. I continue to listen to your podcast, and especially during this pandemic nightmare, have appreciated your honest feedback and perspective on managing student loans and overall personal finance. I’m sticking to my long-term strategy!

Thank you Travis
For giving veterinarians a voice and for being a trustworthy, knowledgeable resource for those of us with massive student loan debt.

So relevant!
This podcast serves as a much needed resource for people like me with insane student loan debt! The more I feel that I know... the more questions I have. Thank you for making this podcast that continues to answer all the questions in my head so I can live my best life!

Invaluable information
I’ve followed SLP for a while now and the guidance from Travis and his team has been invaluable. My husband and I both have student loans from our post grad studies and it’s been incredible to have SLP to seek advice from - especially in a world where there are tons of scammers and misleading information. Great content.

For anyone with student debt...
Thanks for all the info. It’s nice to have a trustworthy source in an otherwise seedy industry.

EXCELLENT RE$OURCE
Travis has been an amazing resource for us, as financial planners/consultants, to send friends and clients his way to help them with this aspect of their financial life. We will continue to send folks their way so long as their loans! It should be noted Travis is a CFA, which makes him one of the most overly qualified student loan planners in the country.

Great Podcast
Really good stuff. Hard to find things like this that aren’t slanted or targeted.

Relevant, Smart, Actionable
This podcast was fantastic. As a new graduate with large amounts of student debt this podcast has already been eye opening. Travis and his team helped me make changes to my repayment plan that will save me literally 10s of thousands if not more than 100k. I will definitely be tuning in for future episodes.
