  • 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.

  • 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.
