chloe needs FINANCE
think its on r/personalfinance
i have to pay off my 50k in student loans
FIFTY THOUSAND?
is your principal $50k or the total you’ll have to pay including interest?
50k is not that much these days
principal
i’m thinking of doing the lowest monthly payment because it’s very likely i’ll qualify for PSLF (plan on working for a non-profit hospital)
will also likely be in a high cost of living place
TRULY WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY
and yeah 50k isn’t actually too bad - it would be much worse without scholarships / without parents helping with undergrad lol
actually i’d have to do income-driven for PSLF
ugh i hate money things
me and you both. im so fucking glad i managed to get through college without having to take out loans. it took fucking forever, but i did it and im debt free atm which is mostly just through luck and circumstances.
im happy for you fren (genuinely - that’s so so great)
the only advice i can give on the loans front (which sucks) is to be super vigilant about them trying to fuck you because they will try to fuck you. my sister tried to pay her offs when she came into a big chunk during her divorce, and they rejected every payment that would clear it off and like just kept trying to fuck her over even when she’d make progress it was insane. it’s absolutely intentional too. like genuinely do your due diligence in every interaction.
hilariously my parents were just talking with me about college finances and how screwed colleges are now
