That's really the trend with these kinds of stories. They are fucking stupid and continue to make stupid choices decade after decade. They then realize how fucking stupid they were and look to everyone else to fix it. Fuck them.
Sallie Mae, my main loan provider at the time, suggested forbearance: That meant my loan payments would temporarily be suspended without going into default. The accrued interest would be added to my principal. It sounded like a reprieve. It was actually a trap.

Today, 14 years after my last day of school, I’ve paid $60,000 toward $78,000 of loans. Somehow, I am now $100,000 in debt.
Whaaaaat? Federally-protected and "bailed-out" kike bankers lying to 'goyim' to get them locked into an even worse level of debt slavery from which it is impossible to ever get out of? I'm shocked, I tell you. Shocked!
Equally shocking (read: not at all) is that they also want the government to fix their problem instead of being mad at the kike bankers for lying to and tricking them into deeper debt slavery - the very bankers who are in bed with and protected by the same government that they want to step in and fix their problem. To the kike bankers and the government, there is no problem.
Maybe you should have taken more math and some economics classes.
Economics classes are horrible, they put your brain on judaism.
For example, they will teach you that exporting your cash to foreign countries is a win for yours. This does not make sense and you will be shamed into accepting it, at which point you will have lost your common sense and have to work even harder to regain it.
Does being willfully retarded hurt?
edit: not the poster, the idiot from the article
When I finished school in 2007 — with an undergraduate degree in biology and a master’s in science journalism — I owed $78,060 in federal loans.
LMAO. No one should be forced to subsidize this level of stupidity.
None of these government-issued loans are legal to begin with.
We give out free money to everyone who isn't White, why can't Whitey get some of his own gibs? At the very least, cap the interest at 6% or, better still, just stop charging interest on it. The government will get its due, since Whites are the only tax-paying demographic.
For those who may have forgotten this, back in his day, Dubya passed an anti-usury law, making the maximum interest rate 6%...for deployed military members only. Similar to how Dubya passed national permitless concealed carry...for "law enforcement" only.
"science journalism"..... jesus balls.
so, goyim take out usury loans to be indoctrinated into degeneracy and communism. if the goy “serves” instead of going to college, they get lit up by sand niggers for the amusement of kikes, while niggers impregnate their wives back at home.
THIS is why basic economics needs to be taught beginning in the 6th grade.
A little trick I picked up is if I want to know how valuable a specific degree is, I tend to look that up as part of a requirement in places like indeed to get an idea of what jobs exist, what credentials they require, and what kind of wages they offer.
So far it has yet to fail me with reputable degrees.
Ah, but the joke is on the rich kids. They are going to Harvard and Yale on their daddy's money, but a degree from the Ivy League is now worthless due to the drop in standards to accomodate the niggers.
what the fuck is science journalism?
All of you people saying "serves them right" are forgetting that most people with student loans get them when they are right out of high school and after a lifetime of being told by both their parents and teachers (as well as every other adult influence in their life) that getting a college degree is the only way to be wealthy. In many cases it is that if they go to college they WILL be wealthy. Those that sell them on these predatory loans feed on this and promise them that they will easily be able to pay back the loans.
Problem isn't even people who have degrees in dumb fields. It is that a lot of people getting jobs in fields that you normally would expect to make a lot of money aren't really making that much money. There are lawyers out there making less than their paralegals because the market is straight up flooded with lawyers. See no one told their parents that if everyone sends their kids to law school, there are going to be too many lawyers. And their the lucky ones, there a lot of psychology majors too who thought they would have a cushy job as a therapist who have had to move onto entirely different and unrelated careers so all they have is an expensive piece of paper.
