ou should not feel shame or guilt for not having the foresight at age 18 to anticipate that the government was going to actively try to hurt you and prevent you from paying down loans in an equitable fashion. You made a decision based on the facts and longstanding precedent.
I am in medical training currently. I have an exorbitant amount of student loans that dwarf my annual salary. I obviously would not have ever agreed to any plan that requires me to pay $3000+ per month while making $60-70K per year because anybody could plainly see that it would be insane. I agreed to a CONTRACT based on laws and plans that had been in place for a very long time without being significantly altered. I refuse to be shamed or condescended to for taking out "more loans than I can pay" like I don't understand basic math, and NEITHER SHOULD YOU.
In the meantime, despite all the anxiety, try and rejoice in the fact that despite all the bluster, these ghouls are literally preventing themselves from getting paid back with every passing day that they prevent us from certifying income. How's that for bad with money?

Sweaty you signed a contract that you didn't fully understand or read.

You don't understand basic math.

I'm supposed to rejoice...in that?

Same people/side that advocate kids to take HRT and sterilize themselves because they might "feel" different btw.
We all know they never made the decision based on facts they read and understood. I don't even know wtf talking about "longstanding precedent" means in this context.
One look at an amortization table for their loans should have told them either how bad monthly payments were going to be. If you had an idea of what field you were going in you could easily look up starting salaries and compare if you can actually make those payments. Career wont pay enough? Don't get the loan, or switch careers. Or both.
And you have cute twinks like these that post that stupid comic because they equate doing some basic math and judgement calls as being born with a silverspoon
