Whiz Kid’s Book Advocates Community Colleges as Solution to Financial Crisis

08/09/2012 (press release: dannyasingh19) // Orlando, Florida, United State // Rita Singh

Singh raises concerns that the student loans crisis will cause a recession in America which could possibly be worse than the housing crisis, because unlike home loans, student loans are not dischargeable in bankruptcy and they have exceeded 1 trillion dollars.

He is providing expert advice in his finance book, Finance 101: The Whiz Kid’s Perfect Credit Guide. He is also running his own independent and non-profit credit advisory agency called “Students’ Finance Success” from his home in East Orlando, helping families save homes from foreclosure, save cars from repossession, manage student loans, and helping them fix their credit reports.

Singh’s own story started when he took over his mother’s finances, at just 11 years old.

“My mother began working more than 60 hours a week, and she was working long hours too. She was overwhelmed by our financial situation and turned to me for help,” said Singh.

Rita Singh added her 11-year-old son as an authorized user on all of her accounts so the companies would release her information to him. A finance whiz kid, Singh was dedicated to the cause, learning everything he could by talking to the customer service representatives on the phone, diligently researching information on the internet, scrutinizing the fine print on account statements and quizzing his mother.

As a result, for the past eight years he has been successfully managing his mother’s IRA, paying all her bills and making sure the deposit accounts do not pass into the red. Singh established perfect credit record for his mother – all the while maintaining his own strong academic record.

“I worked with more than 30 different banks, who have each contributed to my skills. One major accomplishment was getting the interest rates reduced and the annual fees removed on several of my mother’s credit cards,” Singh said.

He didn’t stop there. Singh increased the credit limits on his mother’s credit cards, linking them to checking accounts to prevent overdraft fees, which achieved increased credit scores. The 14-year-old ‘finance whiz kid’ was then able to refinance the mortgage.

“The mortgage interest rate was reduced to 4.86 percent fixed with a 30-year loan term. Then I set to work refinancing the car. I asked my mother to open a new credit card, which meant I could transfer her 7 percent interest rate car loan onto it and obtain a fixed interest rate of 3.99 percent for life,” he said.

To reduce the expenses of the car and house further, Singh negotiated cheaper premiums with the insurance companies, using his mother’s new high credit scores.

While proactively reducing his mother’s debt, Singh’s financial diligence has also prevented some anomalies that might otherwise have gone unnoticed.

“When I was 18, I discovered my mother was being charged the wrong interest rate by a credit card company, so I simply contacted the corporate office. The bank confirmed it was their mistake and we were refunded over $1,300 in interest and fees,” Singh said.

When a fraudulent company was found stealing money from his mother’s bank accounts, Singh reported the issue to the Better Business Bureau and the Internet Complaints Board, and then worked with the bank to return all her money.

Friends and family have also benefited from Singh’s help with their mortgage problems. He solved a credit issue for his grandmother, ensuring she was approved for credit after first being denied.

Now aged 19, Danny Singh is working to raise awareness of credit issues amongst his fellow students at Seminole State College of Florida and further afield. His financial seminars at the college educate the students on the most effective plans to pay off their loans and other debts.

“I recommend students do the maximum number of classes at a community or state college to get into the least amount of student loan debt, and reduce financial stress,” he said.

Singh is donating all the royalties he receives from his book, Finance 101: The Whiz Kid’s Perfect Credit Guide, to the Children’s National Medical Center in Washington DC to support HIV research.

And while he is helping others with their financial dreams, Danny has his own goal to achieve.

“I’m planning on having a role at Chase Bank as a financial adviser when I finish my MBA and Ph.D. in two years. But above all, I want to ensure my mother is mortgage-free,” he said.
