I had none and my daughter should finish undergrad with none since her scholarship and daddy covers it. If she goes to med school it's all on her so she'll have a bunch.

Zero. I worked for the Federal Government for 2 1/2 years after college and they paid all 25000 of my debt off at 839 a month.

Unfortunately my dad paid for school so I have nothing to forgive

Same here. My folks were not loaded and paid for my private university experience. Please forgive.

What are the current rates?
I had a credit score over 800 and $0 in debt for undergrad and grad school, but thanks to the gubment wanting to support SJW getting liberal fart degrees the lowest rate I could get was 7.2%. The student loan deal that Obama signed a few years back really sticks it to the ones who are getting degrees that will actually help society.

the loans are already being forgiven or cancelled in one way or another.Forgiving all of the loans would be nice but I won't hold my breath.
My situation, I have to make 10 years of payments and then the rest of my loans are eligible for forgiveness.
A lot of people up in arms over the ideas of loans being cancelled out or forgiven always bring up the taxpayer thing.
What about a professional who:
1) took out a student loan
2) got his or her degree
3) has payments that are either too high to make based on income/salary
4) and the debt is so much that even if he/she never misses a payment in life, the loan will never be paid off.
5) Also, the professional is a taxpaying citizen
In that situation, why are others so up in arms over the idea of the debt being cancelled? You say it's stealing from taxpayers...well do we assume that person isn't a taxpayer? just wondering

You obviously have not read Clinton or Sander's plans. The government will just pick $1.2trillion in debt without the individual making a single payment.

It didn't even go by credit score back when I got mine
My parents paid for school but I ended up graduating with about 15k due to funding spring breaks, ski trips, beers, NYC, etc.
I think about $75 get autodrafted from my account every month

My wife and I started with 90k five years ago. I'll be done with this next year. With the extra payments to get pmi off our mortgage and the extra payments to student loans, the wife will be getting almost 4k more a month in expendable income.
FIFY

I am the professional that you describe. You know how I treat my loans? Like it's a mortgage payment for a place in Steamboat that I never visit. Where people really get "into trouble" is living like a pauper for the very important 10 years right after school just to pay back their loans in an expedited way. Screw that. I'd rather just pay them back on schedule and live well.
My loans don't cause me much hardship and without them I wouldn't have the income that I do. Maybe I should've lived poorer during school but I enjoyed my 9 years in Baton Rouge and wouldn't change a thing.
