Outrage! How Student Loans Are Destoying Us

You can google some site called Defaultdocs.com and check all the Doctors who have defaulted on their loans. There will come a time when nobody will want to be an engineer, doctor, dentist, lawyer, scientist in this country because of the cost of tuition. Meanwhile in China education is free and much cheaper in  Europe.

 
It is one those things where you have to look at the pricing of each school. Does it pay to get a private university education or go public? That was many things I asked myself. I only had 5,000 in loans which some of yawl would die to have that amount.I got an associates degree in a trade (refinery) and made $60,000 at bottom pay at less than half a year.

yea this is a unfortunate situation with the amount of $$ in student loans in default this could one day turn into the next crisis as the housing loans a few years back. Maybe not as bad but nevertheless...   Not even sure what a college degree gets you nowadays unless it's a specialized skill that is in high demand. Regardless whatever salary you make coming out of college it's going to take a long time to pay back

My husband went to trade school (plumbing) and about 3 years later was making 120k plus unbelievable benefits. California unions were insane! Now, new state, no union, no 120k. But still, this is a great way to get a career without going into any serious debt.

 
Education is for the rich and upper middle class. That is why people who are born into poverty will probably never have that opportunity and will live and die in poverty in the richest country(outside the Arab states) in the world.

Sad.

There has to be other options in the US to make enough money to support a family with an occupation that does not required a college education.

Become self-employed, or get an education, and "work for the man"...I would choose option #1..Pell grants are still available for free, and I went to college for 2 years, and didn't pay a dime out of pocket, so there are still options available for college...You don't have to be rich or upper class to make it in this country..

that is the way to go! If you get a education now a days it pays to go into a specialized skill to get a job. Can't just go to school and get a general Liberal Arts degree , History Degree etc..

I have an MBA in finance and accounting from a "top" school - and it took me a decade to pay off my loans. Made my last payment six months ago!! The debt is not worth it!!! And I can't even look at VaJayJays everyday (ah...not that I'd want to).

  6. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  7. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  8. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  9. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  10. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  11. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
