You Should NOT Feel Responsible For YOUR OWN ACTIONS - You Were 18 And YOUNG - Don't Be ASHAMED Of Your Student Loans

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.

lmao I remember my teachers pushing me to take student loans and go to uni for philosophy and being flabbergasted I wasn't willing to chain myself to that boulder of debt with no means to ever lift it

Unironically the best thing I ever did was get a BA in Philosophy.
