That’s about 7 months worth of my payment that I’ve been paying for the past 10 years,

I'm up there with you.
$1103 per month and I've paid about $90,000 so far.

I applaud your perseverance, but $120k ain't going to do it. But it's a nice start


The power of compounding interest in a 529 plan. I did the same for 18 years for my two boys and wound up with $390,000 for their college. Paid for 5 years between the two of them thus far and still sitting on $244k.

WHy not just cancel all mortgages while we're at it. A lot more is owed on homes than SL, so... why not end that "oppression" too?

Feel free to start another thread discussing cancelling mortgages. This thread is about student loans.

No freaking telling what all is going to happen this election year.

Forgiving loans pisses me off and is just a way to get votes from the 20somethings.

This is morally wrong. Biden is stealing from us but this country has degenerated so badly that no one will stop him.

His administration put out a Fact Sheet of the specifics on the White House website today.

From the Fact Sheet . . .
quote:

Thanks to the Biden-Harris Administration’s SAVE plan, starting today, the Administration will be cancelling debt for borrowers who are enrolled in the SAVE plan, have been in repayment for at least 10 years and took out $12,000 or less in loans for college. For every additional $1,000 a borrower initially borrowed, they will receive relief after an additional year of payments.


Link to the entire release below.

Something doesn't play here. How do you "cancel" debt?

It's debt because someone owes it. It doesn't simply disappear. Someone still has to pay it

This is actually a spit in the face to gov employees who had to take less money for 10 years than working in the private sector. Now they have opened it up to those people as well.
