    Lindsay, how much do you owe? Stanford couldn’t have been cheap

      Nice job on abc news lindsay and Jeff.

      FMD has a license to print money right now.

        Great session.

        It is concerning that adults (students) are not to aware of their finances.

          Lindsay and Jeff were awesome on ABC News! Especially liked Lindsay’s “Don’t worry about bubble–just keep on giving people value” response. On the money guys :)

            Mom has to clear this up. It was Adam who was awesome on ABC News! (Not that Jeff couldn’t have done an awesome job too.)

              And by the way, Lindsay is ALWAYS awesome!

                Beverly— yesterday I spelled Lindsay’s name wrong….in fact, all three of them will tell you to pretty much ignore everything I say :)

                Of course, this time I have an excuse because the executive producer even misidentified :)

                  Speaking of student loan stocks, STU was one of the best, least talked about stocks we ever owned, and sold.

                    mpbk-astute observation. Stanford is not cheap. I have an average amount of loans and was COMPLETELY in the dark about them until the repayment games began. Especially poignant episode for me in that regard. Students should be tested on the terms of their loans BEFORE they sign on the dotted line.

                      In about 5 years….Would love to see the groom’s face when the girl with $200k in student loans turns to him on the honeymoon:

                      “Oh by the way…..I’ve got this student loan…..”

                        only true error in the piece is that low of 21 was pre-3 for 2 split, and the high in the mid-50’s is post-split, so if you got it at the low and held to the highs you did even better than the chart in the film depicted. I don’t believe fmd does any work for slm although the piece indicated they did, but i won’t count that in error as i’m not certain. Also, fmd has minimal to no exposure to public loan funds, i forget if it’s minimal or none, so, unless regulation hits the pvt loan area they are ok. Even better, if public funding gets cut the pvt sector will be right there to pick up the slack; more business/more profits for fmd and its shareholders.

                              Bev - I had my brief moment, and you snatched it away from from me ; )

                                    How about getting “separate” spelled right when emailing to a friend - small but right for such a finesse production. LINDSAY FOR PRESIDENT!

                                      We were so proud of the job that LINDS AND ADAM did on the recent ABC interview and equally happy for the entire WS team. We know what a herculean effort it takes to deliver so much quality and creativity everyday. That’s why we watch them and that’s why we love them!

                                        Barron’s takes a critical look at the stocks.

                                        With the Subprime fiasco it may just be rocky for FMD for a while.
