In today's episode, we're answering your questions about student loans, taxes, and what to do next once you're already doing a lot of things right. We talk about Borrower's Defense cases and when the government might actually forgive your loans, then dig into smart loan repayment strategies. We also cover investing after you've maxed out your 403(b), what to know after doing your first Mega Backdoor Roth and solo 401(k), and a few tax form gotchas. We wrap up with how to think about cash balance plans when you still have a long runway to invest. Today's episode is brought to us by SoFi, the folks who help you get your money right. Paying off student debt quickly and getting your finances back on track isn't easy, but that's where SoFi can help — they have exclusive, low rates designed to help medical residents refinance student loans—and that could end up saving you thousands of dollars, helping you get out of student debt sooner.
