Man. That's a tough one. Amazing job that'll be the foundation of your resume for the rest of your career BUT you basically prolong adolescence until you're damn near 30. I can't imagine trying to date while living like that. Not that I would be offered that job in 1000 years but I'd have to think long and hard about accepting, given those circumstances. Hell, if I work after 6pm I start to get seriously grumpy.

Sadly I owe $1800, because I had it down to like $300 and forgot I didn't ay it off (like in 2005) then they just caught up to me and hit me with penalties and interest. Writing a check for half now and the other half in January.

I feel really bad for people with those online degrees. It costs like $95,000+ for a online degree and most are worthless.

Online MBA's from respected brick and mortar institutions are definitely not worthless.

How exactly are you getting bailed out after 10 years? Who is bailing you out?


Public service after 10 years.


I believe it's non-profit, too.

My wife and I are at $0.00. I have a masters and she'll have a doctorate in a year and a half.

Yep. In two years our note balloons to about $4500/month. That's our condo on the beach...At least we'll have her med school / my mba student loans paid off by 36'ish. Then we will be bringing in some considerable income.
