Vet Debt Session with Dr. Elaina Petrone

Let's go back to the beginning when I landed my very first student loan consulting client. I’ve been very fortunate to have Elaina as a friend over the years and helping her with her veterinarian student loans is where it all began. We met on a grouper date when a bunch of us got together and hung out. I actually was just helping out as a friend and didn’t take any sort of payment until I finally caved when she forced me to take some compensation. Going through veterinary school, her student loan debt quickly piled up, but I was able to help guide her to the correct repayment methods for her situation. In today’s episode, you'll find out:  Private schools or public schools? Which is "better" for professional degrees in terms of student loan debt? Differences between a DVM and a VMD How many different vet schools did Elaina apply for? Working with someone you know and someone you don’t. (Travis as her SL advisor). If Elaina had a chance to look for and start a practice where would she look? What are the benefits of buying your own practice? Why don’t some veterinarians want to become business owners? What has been holding Elaina back from buying a practice? Retirement accounts experience - What and how much Elaina decided to invest in? Elaina’s ideal financial life? New or used car? What’s a better investment?    Full show notes at: http://studentloanplanner.com/9  ________     Like the show? There are several ways you can help!
