re: How much student debt do you have currently?

no one expects someone else to pay the bill. I'm taking advantage of a program that the government offers. If you're angry about that then that's your issue.

I took out loans for law school. Most law school grads (or any grads really) that work for government, city, or an other qualified non-profit are eligible for PSLF(Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. If you work any of these jobs for 120 months or period of 10 years (doesn't have to be in succession) and you make the payments under the program, the remaining portion of your debt is forgiven.

Excuse me for taking advantage of a program the government created and somehow being considered a person who does not take personal responsibility lol.

I do agree it's a generational thing. The 40-60 year old age group were told to go college or bust. I think the current 20-39 year old group would have been better served looking into vocational and community colleges unless going into accounting, law, or medicine.

But I think there was a slight stigma when people found out little Johnny wasn't going to college. But look at lil Johnny now? big house, nice kushy oil and gas job, debt free.

Also most law school grads are NOT making 160k their first 3 years out of law school and if they are the chances of them living with their parents and not having kids or significant other is even less likely. That's a misnomer regarding starting salaries of the majority of J.D.s
