Student loan debt is not just holding back young adults. It's increasingly an issue for older people, sending many of them into default and threatening retirement plans for some. In fact, people aged 60 and older are the fastest growing age segment of the student loan market, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
And, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, almost 23% of student debt was held by people aged 50 and older as of 2021.
An analysis from the CFPB found that 39% of consumers aged 60 and older who have student loan debt failed to take care of health care needs such as prescription medicines, doctors' visits, and dental care because they couldn't afford it, compared to 25% of older consumers without a student loan. And according to the Biden administration, a third of seniors with student debt was in default.
"This is a really big issue," says Erik Kroll, a certified financial planner whose company is called Student Loans Over 50, a subsidiary of Hilltop Financial Advisors, "This delays and destroys retirement dreams and adds a lot of stress and anxiety for someone.

Paul S. Garrard, founder and president of PGPresents agreed: "I would say (it's) a significant challenge." He said it's a combination of old

About 145 million American adults say that they own or have owned cryptocurrency. Statistically, that's more than half of your co-workers, neighbors and friends.
It's also about the number of Americans who own stocks.
Even though it's not regulated by a government agency, cryptocurrency is becoming mainstream. However, President Biden recently signed an executive order to address cryptocurrency risks with a whole-of-government approach that could make cryptocurrency even more attractive to investors as well as traditional banks and credit unions.

For the near term though, cryptocurrency remains a volatile, speculative asset that will likely continue its gut-wrenching booms and busts. That's not to say that cryptocurrency doesn't belong in a well-diversified portfolio, but I recommend that my clients first educate themselves about cryptocurrency before deciding whether or not to invest.
As Warren Buffet said about investing in cryptocurrency: "I get into enough trouble with the things I think I know something about. Why in the world should I take a long or short position in something I don't know about?"
Here are some important concepts to get comfortable with.
