I feel like the harder you work in the US the more they want to take from you. Because why is my student loan payment $478 when my car insurance is $242 and rises every year. My rent is $2200 which is standard for my living area and I wish I could save for a house or something but food costs a lot in the city. I have a chronic illness that costs $600 for medication and doctor visits (with insurance)… sometimes I feel like misery is the American Dream now… work, debt, die… 😟

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???

LCSW 50k loan repayment- Has anyone been granted a contract through the National Health Service Corps Loan Repayment Program?

I have a 25K loan from my MBA. I paid off 100k whole, after graduation. 3 years ago, I moved my loan from federal to private ( SOFI) account. I recently lost my job. I have applied for unemployment, as the severance that I received will only cover for 2 months. Together my husband and I used to make less than 250k after tax. Now, with a loss of pay , we are going to make less. Do you think I will be eligible for Loan forgiveness?

Can grad students get $20k forgiven if they got Pell in undergrad but outstaning loans are only for grad school?
