That’s only because you decided to get your masters after you retired.

What a racket! Colleges in the loan business.

But when they do, those BA’s will surely come in handy.

Only in America

I would like you to meet my friend, Sallie Mae.

I prefer the Mike Rowe advice

and probably his as well

We have always had predatory banks and lenders. As Woody Guthrie once sang, “Some men will rob you with a six-gun, and others with a fountain pen.”

You should’ve apprenticed as a carpenter or plumber.

A Yuengling Light is easy to stare at when pondering investments.

“Why do you think we started cooking Meth?”

At the time, I just assumed (entitlement?) it was normal, but I am SOOOO thankful that I got scholarships to cover my tuition. I was EXTREMELY blessed.

Nothing like debt to bring together members of the educated class. That second job prevents them from having time to revolt.

I worked to pay my way through three college degrees and that of my ex. Any small loans were paid off within a year of getting full time professional employment. Those bills came first. When necessary, I worked full time and went to school part time for a while to keep up our bills. I believe that interest is for earning, not paying.

Have to laugh at MOST of the comments, they blame either the school or the banks, but never themselves. One thing that would fix a lot of this is denial of loans for degrees that have next to none potential for earnings.

And we have always had people refuse to take responsibility for their own decisions and actions.

Many of those heading to college go for the four-year “party”.

If you can’t afford it, don’t buy it. At least that is how I looked at it.

If Nana and Poppa are STILL paying off THEIR student loans, they need a new financial advisor!!!

Bullshit. Nana and Poppa coasted their white asses by on the G.I. Bill. People from that generation don’t have a clue what hardship is, not compared to the crushing despair and hopelessness young people nowadays face from the world Nana and Poppa created for them.
