Student loans. And I'm not in medicine so yeah sucks.300k in debt and not from mortgage? What the hell from? I hope it's at least some kind of investment with a decent return on it.
did you at least graduate with a degree? What did you study?Student loans. And I'm not in medicine so yeah sucks.
Damn, that's a giant student debt. Probably should have weighed that out to see if it was even worth it having to pay half an average salary in loans for almost a decade before even catching up. I think if I wasn't on scholarship I probably would have done a community college for 2 years and then transferred to cut down on the expense.Student loans. And I'm not in medicine so yeah sucks.

I haven't even started paying on my student loans yet.For starters, mortgage doesn't count. How has your debt impacted your life?
Nearly 300K of debt at ~8%. I feel like I'm in autopilot trying to clear it off. I'm not sure how I'm suppose to do normal things like take holidays, date, or start a family in my current situation. I could increase the term and that would give me some spending money but then I'd be eating even more in interest. The future feels bleak.
How did your debt impact your life? Are you happy with the way you approached paying it off?
Edit:
For those asking the source of my debt the answer is student loans. Don't want to get into the details but obviously I regret taking on so much.

does your friend realize a philosophy degree by itself doesnt do shit? You've gotta use it to get into law school or do postgrad and teach the next generation of "philosophy majors".Had a coworker who graduated from a prestigious University with a philosophy degree and was swimming in debt. So philosophy?
