Same here. After college rented a garage apartment. 400 a week. Doubled up on student loan and credit card debt. Stayed there till I had paid everything off. I have no sympathy for a$$hats that don’t pay their debts.

Can't garnish them if you don't have a job!

It will be a hoot when those Soros backed NGOs have to give some of it back to the gubmint.

It's a shame their degrees in areas like 19th century theater, gender studies, ethic studies didn't result in a six figure income job.

I still can't comprehend that people would actually expect someone else to pay off their own student loan debt.

And you know a lot of those nose ringed, green haired dirty pigs maxed out their loans thinking they wouldn't have to pay it back. Welcome to the big boy/girl world.

Biden lied.

Prog filth cried.

They believed that debt forgiveness crap

Idiots

Isn’t there a ECU fan here that might become one of the screamers?

Oh yeah.

My wife and I worked through college on the five year plan and avoided debt. After obtaining useful degrees and after our marriage, we exchanged fun stuff for money for grad school cost and avoided debt. My wife and I exchanged doing fun stuff with saving for our kid's BSN and MSN schools and she was able to avoid debt.

The theme for us (and will most of us here, I suspect) was we deferred gratification to achieve possible benefits in an uncertain future.

Completely cancelling college loans punishes people for saving and for picking a career paying well that they would not have selected otherwise.

It is also grossly unfair to people not seeking a college degree.

Nevertheless, I have sympathy for young people hoodwinked by promises made by colleges. It should be these colleges contributing to debt cancelation and not taxpayers.

You know I decided if the government is gonna pay off everyone's loans, and I pay taxes along with my loans, I might as well apply..

I was denied.. Never got a reason.. I suspect because of the degree I got and the median salary coming out of school..

Didn't he mostly give forgiveness to people working in Nursing, Public Education, and government jobs? If so, with the lack of people wanting to go into teaching and the shortage of nurses, I suspect you'll see a lot of government grants to replace the forgiven loans, thus it won't save much (at least in the short term).

Something like that.. If I remember correctly too, it wasn't like the government contacted the lenders and paid it off, they sent checks straight to those who borrowed and most blew it on trips instead of paying the loans off.. For some reason there was a government employee that somehow made 6 figures, got forgiveness, and that was their plan.. I could be wrong...
