What really helped me was learning the discipline to save and understand my own financial commitments that allowed me to quickly pay my debt off. This also helped me for the present and for the future.

I guess I shouldn't have paid mine off already.

Hey, I'm about to take on some more student debt, can I apply for that afterwards?

I have a friend that hiked the Appalachian Trail, Georgia to Maine.

Actually Sen Warren , President Obama and others are working to regulate student loan policies.
Perhaps alleviating your future debt load

Sweet... so we can borrow money and don't have to pay it back!?? Who's paying it back?

You -- obviously didnt even bother to open the link.

I didnt post it to argue or make a point. I thought perhaps someone here might be buried in student loan debt and wasn't aware of this program.

No more - no less

I'm thinking we should go with a Repo Man approach and send Emilio Estevez and Jude Law after people who don't pay. Just have to find the right grey matter exchange rate.

That's...not even what was said?

Poor Sallie Mae :'( they may not be able to **** over desperate college students as much anymore. how are their CEOs going to handle a smaller salary/bonus though? this is the real victim here.

it's amazing how people like to treat corporations in a more humane way than actual people.

I don't think we are looking to Emilio Estevez enough to solve some of the issues at play in our country.

I agree.

The real issue is not being able to find a job post college education. I mean I am still in school and I can imagine how difficult it will be to get a job once I am finished. I work part time and it took six months of looking to finally land my trash job I currently have.

Because it's all a sham, no matter what they tell you, the truth is that if you're gonna get a job, education is just a barrier they can often use to shut down someone they don't want otherwise

This is silly. Every single bit of research ever performed shows that higher levels of education (particularly in the STEM fields) correlates strongly with productivity.

That's because you're including folks who couldn't go to school because a learning/social/whatever disability. While certain educations and many other things can lead to better workers and better paying jobs, having a degree is like the new form of entitlement. "I went to school, so I shouldn't be doing X" well maybe if you showed something in the workplace you'd get that job. There was literally someone at Verizon who said that to me, I laughed at her and told her to sell more and maybe she gets promoted.

I don't know the model specifications of these studies and whether or not they control for those forms of disability.

I'm not going to argue that there are jobs where education isn't as important, but for all the skilled labor jobs this is undoubtedly the case.

People with learning,social and welfare disabilities can't go to college?

Not what I said, if you were to compare, you'd find the numbers skewed as I said.
