Episode Description
In this upcoming episode of Finding Certainty on VoiceAmerica Business, host Patrick Laing sits down with David Kazarian, the innovative founder and CEO of Student Optimum Services (SOS) in Southern California. Join us as we delve into David's journey of building a company that specializes in helping students navigate the complex world of financial aid, scholarships, and student loan optimization. Discover how SOS is making a significant impact by empowering students to graduate with less debt and more financial freedom. In the USA, as of 2024, 43.5 million people carry student loan debt, with an average of over $45,000.00 owed per borrower. David Kazarian and his team at SOS are on a mission to help as many of these individuals as possible take advantage of federal programs available to them that can help reduce their financial burden. Their goal is to free up money that borrowers can then use to lower their total debt, increase their savings, and boost their investments. During the conversation, Patrick and David also explore the specific eligibility requirements for SOS's services, which include: > Total student loan debt must be $20,000.00 or higher. > Students must be out of school (unless the loan is a Parent's Plus Loan). > Loans must be federal loans, not from private lenders. > The borrower must currently have a payment plan. If you're passionate about debt-freedom, financial literacy, or simply looking to learn from a leader who's actively making a difference, this episode is not to be missed. Tune in to gain insights into how David and his team are transforming the financial futures of former college students nationwide.
