Oh but I was happier.....10 years later when I made my final payment.

Being one who honored their obligation while raising a family, buying a home, et al.....I am not a supporter of student loan forgiveness. All those who committed to repay, like me, knew what they were opting in for when they applied for and signed for the loan(s).

There is no excuse for not honoring the obligation and paying back the loan(s). Prudent and responsible budgeting makes it happen.

Not sure how long the thread will last before some posting violations cause it to be closed.....we'll see.
I totally agree, it encourages irresponsibility. And what kind of message does it send to those who planned, budgeted, and sacrificed to pay for their educations?
