"Do I qualify for forgiveness?"

Welcome to the 82 new readers this week!

They've joined 7,720 readers getting no b.s. student loan news.

Hey ,

My shaky internet tried to keep us apart this week. But this message (eventually) got to you all the way from Guadalajara, Mexico.

I might be away on vacation, but I still rustled up some good stuff for you.

Here’s what we got:

• 🙏 Find out if you qualify for the latest round of forgiveness

• 🧐 To consolidate or not to consolidate?

• 🎤 I want to know more about you

• And more…

Go grab your coffee, take a seat, and let’s get into it 👇

🔍 No time to watch? Here’s the low down:

• The question on everyone’s lips: “Do I qualify for forgiveness?”
  I’ll say it a little louder for the people in the back: everyone with federal student loans qualifies for the latest $39 billion forgiveness.

  • Some people will get it sooner than others.

  • If you don’t get your loans wiped out right away, you’ll get credit towards forgiveness.

  • Some of you need to consolidate just to become eligible.

  • Some of you are going to need to consolidate to get the maximum credit.

• The other question everyone’s asking: “Should I consolidate?”
  The answer is yes, you probably should. I encourage you all to think of reasons why you shouldn’t consolidate instead. There are just so many benefits to consolidating right now, it’s almost a no-brainer.

• Huge thanks to everyone who came to the webinar.
  It was an awesome turnout, and it was great seeing some of your faces there. We’ll send the recording—and a feedback survey—out to attendees in the next day or so. Hang tight.

• 🎤Take my survey to win a $50 gift card
  I want to keep building a better newsletter for y’all. And I want to give you as much free stuff as possible. To do that, I need to know more about the people who read this newsletter (that’s you). I’m giving away 3 x $50 gift cards at random to people who complete this survey—could you be one of them?
