re: Teacher with $303,000 student debt says Biden loan-forgiveness not even a drop in bucket

300k in debt for an average degree is laughable.

But with $303,000 in federal student debt — and an additional $20,000 in private student loans
Okay she has this and she's a teacher? Not a doctor.....but a teacher?
Someone explain how this happened.

I have three college degrees and became a teacher (with a license to serve in admin when I choose to give up teaching/coaching). Went to an SEC school, graduated entirely inside of eight seven years....took out a total of $15k in loans and paid them back inside of two years...it is impossible to believe someone could ascertain that amount in education. She will never pay them off and will die with them.

MAYBE a specialized field in medicine. MAYBE. But definitely not anything else.
A doctor could pay that back - and they often get major loan forgiveness if they practice in an under served area.
A teacher doesn't have a prayer.

Where did she go to school that it cost that much money?

My wife has pretty close to that, but she's a physician that's had to make a huge investment into her education and deal with a low salary during residency to make it all happen. And even then she kept making the required payments.
I'm not sure how a teacher would ever rack that much up. And anyone who thinks that the compensation packages offered to teachers could service that debt probably should not be in the classroom teaching other people anything.

And I just noticed that she's 53. Going to be damn hard to pay that off before retirement. That's probably going to be with her forever.

Wouldn't running-up $300K for an education degree be an automatic disqualifier for employment in education?
Posted on 6/6/22 at 10:34 am to boogiewoogie1978
Sorry, but she's too dumb to be a teacher. Anyone who is too stupid to figure out that borrowing +$300K for an education degree shouldn't be teaching your kids, Hope she's not a math teacher?

I know doctors who had less student loan debt than this chick. My daughter is going to graduate from Tulane and have less than 50K in debt. She is an RA at the Dorm and gets room board meals for doing it and has pretty good scholarships.

Who charges 300k for an Education degree? They hand them out like hotcakes for under 40k max.

I see this all the time but will this REALLY help?
At lot of kids rarely pay for anything so they don't understand the financial impact until they start paying the bills. Plus at 18 you're more likely to take risks and are not very smart for the most part.

Dumb bitch couldn't come off the "free" money. She probably teaches economics!

Wtf
My mom teaches. She got certified through online courses that cost a few hundred bucks. And got an award for being a top teacher a few years ago
But she is conservative and not a liberal idiot

In theory, teaching personal finance should start at home. Whether you give your kid an allowance or have them earn money through working, teaching them that the things they want cost money and someone has to earn that money to pay for it. But you’ve got lots of parents that haven’t mastered that concept so they aren’t really qualified for the task.
But then you’ve got old Cheryl at school with her $300k debt and she for damn sure isn’t qualified either. It’s almost like decades of financial irresponsibility has left a large population of Americans financially illiterate and looking for government to save them.

The teacher screwed herself and wants the American tax payers to bail her out?
I never got that kind of help for my personal screw ups and worked it out. She can too.

She should have majored Marxist Interpretive Dance or maybe one of those "studies" that are such "high" demand!

Like at all.
Correct. Welcome to the world of capitalized interest, sweetheart. God help us if this mental giant is teaching anything to do with math or personal finances.
