  • Trust me I fully understand.

    I went to med school, finished back in 2018.

    If I never step foot into a hospital again it’ll be too soon.

    I work from home now as a cloud engineer for a large US-based mortgage company.

    I’m very happy now. I’ve already made my piece that my $350,000 in loans can only be solved by making minimum payments for 20 years.

    All that being said, a lot of people are in a different boat than myself.

    Their loans are much more manageable and I’m really glad they’ll be able to pay them off because interest isn’t accruing.

    Who knows? I make enough now that I’m actually going to have to sit down and calculate whether it’s worth it to pay the loans off myself or just make minimum payments for 20 years and have the rest forgiven.

    The SAVE plan and interest no longer recruiting is the only reason these possibilities are there.

    Otherwise I’d have to resign myself to making 20 years of minimum payments and hoping that forgiveness plan is still in place.







  • You’re trolling right?

    I genuinely thought this was a real post at first.

    But the responses you’re having are just a little too cookie cutter…

    Let’s say you are a real person and are having this problem. First, congrats on making it to a setting that exposes you to a large number of peers from all kinds of socioeconomic backgrounds.

    No matter how much money I have in my life, I think I will insist on sending my kids to public school. That’s what I did for all my life and I turned out fine. Just being exposed to everyone else will really help in maturing and having broad life experiences.
