@ShadSterling Nobody should have crushing debt from education, period. That’s not right.
When I was a college student, my expenses were lower. I had a lot less junk. I lived in a smaller space. I didn’t have a car. My life was simpler in many ways. Those are the specific parts of my experience I’d recommend hanging on to for a while in young adulthood for those who have them — in large part because of paying off debt.
