Is the student loan debt crisis the next big hit to our economy? In this episode, we delve into the looming challenge as borrowers, who've enjoyed a nearly four-year hiatus from payments due to the pandemic, now face the reality of resuming their dues. However, many failed to use this period wisely, spending on non-essentials rather than saving or paying down other debts.

Drawing from compelling personal stories, the episode underscores the essence of frugality, dedication, and personal responsibility in navigating financial hurdles. It's not just a discussion of the problem but a beacon of hope and a roadmap to financial resilience. Tune in for a blend of insights and inspiration, urging listeners to face their debts head-on.
