Student loans are the anchor around her neck and I don't even know her. She prob has 100k in loans yet makes 30k a year.
Go to school during the day. Deliver pizzas at night to pay for it. I did this. I have no debt in the world. None. Not even a house.
Check into federal grants you may qualify for. You may qualify for more than you'd think.
Also, federal loans are not bankruptable. Meaning you will pay those fuckers no matter what happens in your life. Most kids just out of high school have no concept of money and they make the mistake of blindly signing for decades of payments. You're better than that.
First of all you're an idiot.
Secondly most intelligent people I know take out the max for student loans as they are extremely low interest and anyone with an IQ north of yours is capable of seeing the value in a very low interest very high term loan, offered without credit check or collateral of any kind. It's something like 16k per year given and the only requirements are you take 6 units per semester and are not more than 6 months past graduation (which is the time they start asking for payments). In other words, you are an idiot.
Thirdly you're a moron.
Fourthly Jasep does not take financial advice from a moron named "pooh" who lives on the internet. The very same internet he swore up and down he was leaving, because people were mean to him.
Fifthly you're an idiot.
Sixthly you owe nothing on your house? Hmm, that's strange...You have no loans, but you have a huge house with several cars replete with luxury toys like off road vehicles and what not...none of which you have ever provided one shred of evidence to prove even exist, which is because YOU ARE A MORON.
Keep dishing out that life advice bud, it is both welcome and well received. I mean it you dude, you deserve some kind of equitable compensation for your time. Do me next! What sage advice do you have for me bro? LAY IT ON THE 408MIKESTER 1X
