Only if you're retarded offspring of white middle class boomers too rich for their children to qualify for financial aid, but too selfish to pay for their college, or too stupid to realize their kids don't have to go to private schools that cost $40k/year. Most in state school or community college will cost next to nothing and if you get grades you'll need anyway to get a job you'll have scholarships. Only the people too stupid to realize they are too stupid for college get shitty grades and end up the debt trap. The upside is that they spend their lives working the debt off to support our lifestyle.

Americans are really massively stupid...How can you tolerate to pay more than 2% on a student loan when interest rates globally are at their lowest level ever?

I took a 20k euro student loan that was paid back in five years with almost no interest.

>> No.14311179

She probably didn't get fed loans if that's the case, guarantee you she got private loans at 20% interest. I had a friend from college take out a 40k loan at close to 20% interest for the year, absolutely ridiculous

Not him/her but I got one more year in an acting masters. Looking to become a theater professor. You make 70-110k depending on where you teach. In the summers I plan to open my own summer school for kids. $3000 per kid per summer with maybe two employees.

It's not alot of money, and the student debt is insane but it's what I like doing and I don't have expensive tastes. Plus there's income based repayment. It's the kids who are going because they "wanna be a star" that REALLY get fucked.

Please don't hate me, I'm taking the most realistic route I can with this shit.

By which I mean the kids who go to grad school to "become a star". You can make money with meme degrees if you have a realistic plan.

It's insane how many people are getting English degrees and have no intention of becoming editors or technical writers. They just wanna write better poetry.

one of my friends got a degree in history.
He refuses to be a history teacher. I said "Dude, that's the only thing you can do with it, why did you get it if you don't wanna teach?" You can made an ok salary being a history teacher. He CHOSE to work minimum wage instead.

Being in the military in some form is actually really beneficial once you get out. The question is whether the 4 years for free education in the US is worth it (I'd say it is, for people who have to pay for school) and whether the debt outweighs the lost earning potential.

As a side note, in a growing amount of cases, people would be better off not going to school (lib arts and meme degrees).

University in America is literally a recruiting center for slavery. Notice how the interest on these loans are calculated so that the main balance stay constant or decrease as slowly as possible. If the rate was too high the balance would increase and the slave would just stop working since it is clear he will never be able to pay back. If the rate was lower the slave would be free after only a few years.
