How many times have your student loans been bought/transferred to different companies? I have lost count of how many times my loans have traded hands.

I get a letter every other year or so advising of a new holder of my debt. Since I seem to be on a perpetual deferment due to health issues and other factors, I'm not really worried about it. Now, if only Uncle Joe would cancel my debt I wouldn't have to worry about renewing my deferment ever so often.

Same as you, a whole bunch. I feel like I last longer than the loan companies 😆 I feel like I should get a discount for being a consistent payer even if they can't stay a consistent company 😆

I wish mine would just somehow get lost in the transfers lol

I got a decent deal on a small 1 bed in a luxury building (hell’s kitc). Should I do a 12 month lease or 24m?

Got the rent negotiated to under 3k + free amenities for a year (gym, pool, etc.). I’m afraid rent will atleast go back to the original price (+5%) and then some. The building has some sort of rent control but that’s predicted to go away in less than 1 year as per the lease. The legal rent limit is way higher.

Would love some perspective on renewal experience after 1 year. TIA.

Buy/lease now or defer to Q1-2023?

My car broke (engine seized, 10y old). I am interested in 530i ($62k price), however 3year lease is $1,000+ monthly (with $5k down). Monthly lesse payment is 50% more than bmw advertised offers (“south FL dealers are not participating in the program”)

Q to car gurus/experts- should I defer purchase/lease for 6 months? My logic, the impending recession will reduce demand and we will go back to more balanced market (lower prices with negotiation).

Curious to know how much your student loans were when you graduated from your program, how much you’ve paid off so far, and your age. If you have any varying factors too, like kids, income range, etc. Just trying to see if I’m on track or slacking in life. I am 34 yo, i graduated with 95k in student loans, i currently have 85k left and i make 85k in come. I’m also a single mom with two kids. Just praying for 100% student loans forgiveness. Wishful thinking???
