Welcome to Episode 4 of our 7 Money Mistakes series!
🎓 Student loans can shape your future — but only if you understand them.
In this episode, Gene Natali, CEO of Troutwood, highlights a mistake he sees over and over again: students taking out loans without really knowing what they’re signing up for.
When asked, many students say: “I don’t know what I have.”
Here’s the problem:
- They don’t know the interest rate
- They don’t know if the loan is federal or private
- They don’t know their total balance
- And they’ve never heard of fixed vs. variable rates
That lack of awareness doesn’t just hurt — it lingers.
📌 Avoid this mistake by:
- Writing down your loan details when you sign
- Learning the difference between federal and private loans
- Asking questions before borrowing
- Understanding how interest builds over time
Student loans aren’t bad — but not knowing your loan is. Learn it now, while you’re still in school, and take control of your financial future.
