Happy Wednesday, Happier Dentist fam!

Today, I'm speaking with none other than the "Student Loan Planner", Travis Hornsby. He's been in the financial space helping dentists for as long as I can remember.  In this episode, we dig into a few topics that might be helpful for you.

Student loans can be a huge drag on our ability to save, invest or simply allow for more freedom in the things we can do.  In this episode, Travis explains why Student loans are like having a tax and why we should work to optimize them as part of our overall strategy in reducing our debt an increasing our wealth.

Optimizing your student loans is just a piece of the puzzle when tweaking your overall financial plans.
