Happy Monday from Chicago! It's Medora, and even though it isn't officially fall on the calendar and leaves are still green on the trees, fall is closing in fast. You know how I know? There is pumpkin spice in the air and apple cider doughnuts at the store!

Starbucks launched its pumpkin spice latte, also affectionately known as PSL, on Aug. 24 but Target went all in on Sunday with so much more, including as pumpkin ravioli, apple cookies and donuts! Yum!

All the treats and goodies are the upside to fall coming. The downside is...well, student loan payments restart for millions of Americans. If you're in that camp, there's not a minute to spare. Grab your PSL, sit down and start preparing now, advisers say. Be sure to check out President Joe Biden's SAVE plan, which can drastically drive down your payments if you qualify.
