Back in August, Emma Lasry, daughter of Avenue Capital founder Marc, released a music video from a track on her debut album entitled “Closet Bitch.” It had it all– an Acura SUV, a cameo by Khloe Kardashian and Emma telling us, “Everybody thinks I’m so sweet…I’m the girl you love to meet…boys want to take me out to eat…but I’ve got a secret no one knows…I’m a closet bitch.” It now appears Ms. Lasry has some competition in the hedge fund manager daughter/singer-songwriter genre.

“It wasn’t meant to be like, one of these songs that showcases your voice,” she told Daily Intel of her debut track, the video for which she’s removed from YouTube.

LearnVest Planning also provides an innovative 7-step program for your money where you work one-on-one with a financial planner.

“There are a lot of good planners out there who aren’t Certified Financial Panners™,” says Samantha Vient, CFP®, of LearnVest Planning Services. “However, CFPs® are required to adhere to the CFP® Board’s standards of professional conduct.We believe it’s always a good idea to work with someone who has the CFP® designation, which is issued after completing a CFP® Board-approved personal financial planning curriculum, passing a rigorous exam issued by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, meeting experience requirements and passing an ethics and background check.

One idea that’s getting a lot of attention is increasing the options for refinancing debt after graduation. The only lender currently focused on refinancing private and federal student loans is SoFi.
We recognized early on that borrowers who have made timely payments on their loans, graduated from school, and have a job should be able to refinance their student loans at a lower interest rate.
