MtoM #259: PA Pays Off Student Loans in 16 Months and Financial Boot Camp: What is a Bond?
White Coat Investor Podcast
Inflation risk and bond value drivers
James describes inflation eroding nominal bond returns and lists interest rates, default, and inflation as value drivers.
Today we talk to a PA who paid off $155,000 of student loans in just 16 months, entirely on her own. She did it by cutting expenses, living like a resident, and staying focused on rapid debt payoff. Along the way, she built an app to help herself stay organized and motivated, which later became a tool she could share with others. Most importantly, she explains why paying off debt quickly was not just a financial decision, but a key strategy for preventing burnout and protecting her long-term well-being.
