Sasha Manford wants things in life anyone can relate to: buy a home one day, get married and have kids. But before doing that she wants to get her finances under control.

“I don’t want to have this lingering debt with all of that,” the 28-year-old says.

Finance experts Ramit Sethi and Douglas Boneparth help Sasha, a working professional, make a plan to get out of debt in this episode of #MoneyMakeovers.

That's over $120 a month. Then this guy said if she could pay $100 more a month on her debt she would save $10k ? but that's not going to make a dent right?

Ashika Lanser says:

Swipe and not think. Ouch.
Coffee is her money dial tho eh

Jarod Armstrong says:

“Minority community” ?
I swear to god some people find a way to hide behind their complexion from literally every type of adult responsibility. Being fat, being in debt, being a criminal, all of it

AVXS says:

She needs to get married (I mean me) so I can tell her to commit all her 70k salary for 2.5 years paying off her student loan.

AVXS says:

Word of advice: try expanding your audience to everyone, not just minority community. Everyone has student loans….I mean EVERYONE ? ?

Adam Mitry says:

Not going to trash her, but that 4.00 a day could be used to save. 6 grand in 5 years alone..buy a coffee maker..store bought coffee & creamer…. your welcome.

Jean Pierre Rideout says:

If a lack of financial acumen was distinct to minority communities, then every white family on earth is rich, and every minority family is poor.

April_Spring2015 says:

"I will teach you to be rich" is an excellent book. Very insightful, to say the least.

Humble Bee says:

Graham Stephan would have a field day with him saying buying coffee won’t make a dent in her finances ?

sflake02 says:

Thanks Sasha, you will help so many others.

bigblackblock says:

When she said "minority", it pissed me off, and I'm a minority. This aint about race. It applies to everyone.

The Tree Keeper says:

She makes 70,000??? That's like a white person's average wage.

cal blank says:

GAURANTEE she won't listen to a word he says lol

Savings Minus Debt says:

I'd want to see the personal credit report of Douglas Boneparth before taking financial advice from him.

Jp sp says:

$4 per day will make a difference actually. $1460 a year is a nice chunk of change lol

K. Rich says:

Damn what did she study???? I make 70k …no college….no debt…live in Texas….and have 50k in retirement And I'm a blk woman also. This is ridiculous and sad. Does this debt include a house, because I'm thoroughly confused what she spent 185k on. Only time I hear of debt this high is with doctors and lawyers on dave ramsey or with homeowners…..I don't know what to say….she has none of these things?

Matt Sezer says:

I'm not at expert, but it seems to me that based on what she's doing, she's being underpaid. NYC teachers make nearly that in their first year, and that's with several months off in a profession that's typically considered low-paying, unlike working in financial services.

Kevin Barr says:

Excuse me minority community??
