Question 2: @teresanicolla - What are some good investments for first time investors?

Question 3: @misscrumpys - What are your views on crowd funding???

Question 4: @lourileylive - Are they free student loan consolidation programs out there? I have seen several that charge a fee that allow an income-based repayment plan. Is that something an individual can do on their own and not pay the middleman just a file papers? (cc: @honeyynoir)

Question 7: @dwill_realtalktees - What's your best advice for starting a business (clothing line) on a very limited budget? @_realtalktees is my line and it is getting great response so far, but I could use advice with marketing and reaching more people on my current budget? Thanks #RealTalk
