Don't want to give out any exact figures, but student loans got me big time. I'm actually thinking about changing my major altogether and doing aprogram like Teach for America to help cut the debt in half or maybe even eliminate it altogether.
man im in debt
6 Gs from school loans
1 G from Credit Card
1 G from phone bill
and about 5 hundred on a overdrawn bank account
so altogether $8.500 and im 20 DAMN
I am up
Bought my house for 425k
paid it down to 410K
So I am up 15K
After Taxes come in I am up around 18-20K
No Student Loans No CC Debt Nothing and I have My MBA
I am school again right now for a different Career and paid my tuition in cash wasn't much though like 2K
My advice is work hard and sleep when you die
