What Kind of Money Personality Do You Have?

This week Damon Day and I produce another low rent show, this time about the recent information out from the Department of Education Inspector General.  The report released found the Department of Education was doing a poor job keep federal student loan servicers in line. The report stated, "By not holding servicers accountable for instances of noncompliance with Federal loan servicing requirements, FSA did not provide servicers with an incentive to take actions to mitigate the risk of continued servicer noncompliance that could harm students." Shocker?

We then ramble into a conversation about the problems students at Argosy University are facing trying to figure out where their financial aid money is or went.

Finally, we have a little chat about how the news of car loans defaulting isn't exactly what everyone thinks. Default rates are up, but not for everyone.

Dealing with financial problems is about more than just making a budget. This time Damon Day and I talk about how to make having fun affordable, traveling on the cheap with your own trailer, a few money-saving tips, and Damon tells us how he just got scammed on Craigslist. I'm not sure how we managed to turn the full recording into a podcast but we did. Some curse words included. - Steve Rhode - Get Out of Debt Guy

We are potentially on the backside of consumer protections from the pandemic. One of these protections was to put evictions on hold while people were struggling to make rent payments. Unless Congress or individual states extend the protections, waves of evictions are possible. ProPublica had a very informative article out on this subject that I wanted to share with you.
