| 6/23/26 |  Are you a "SHENRY"? | You've heard of HENRYs, high earners who are not rich yet. But what if you're a high earner with six figures in student loan debt on top of it? That's a SHENRY, and the path to wealth looks different when a 401(k), a 457, an HSA, and a $300,000 loan balance are all competing for the same paycheck. We walk through the five moves SHENRYs can make to accelerate wealth growth, from maximizing tax-advantaged accounts to using income-driven repayment as a cash flow tool to getting more out of the degree you already paid for.Key moments:(07:24) Wealth move 1: Max out tax-advantaged accounts(08:03) Wealth move 2: Weaponize income-driven repayment(09:09) Wealth move 3: Open a brokerage account early(11:12) Wealth move 4: Use professional loan programs to optimize housing moves(14:25) Wealth move 5: Two ways to maximize the value of your degreeLike the show?
