[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can just imagine what kind of spoiled princess this woman is that she balks at their household money going to his med school debt (I guess she expects him to quietly pay it off without her noticing) and then cries to her PARENTS about it. [/quote] He’s the spoiled one. Why does he even have so much debt (multiple orders of 100k!) and why can’t his parents pay it off? He was too poor to go to med school. Who racks up so much debt and expects his new wife to just make it disappear? At the very least he should commit to working his a$$ off with extra shifts or working on weekends to increase their HHI to the point he can pay the debt off faster. What a freeloader. I would say the same if genders were reversed. [/quote] Many careers require grad degrees, and this is even more true in the health care fields (you need doctorate to be a PT now, for example). So only rich people should have those jobs. MANY people rack up debt of a large magnitude to get the long-term earning potential and for having love a field. Also, when you're in your 20s it's hard to understand the long-term impact of such large loans. So get off your high horse. [/quote] That’s all fine and it’s common knowledge. Everyone knows grad degrees are expensive and anyone taking on that much debt should have a financial plan for paying it off themselves, not pulling someone into marriage and dumping the debt on that person. Even teenagers are financially wise nowadays and want to avoid debt. What kind of dumb 20 something year old thinks taking on hundreds of thousands in debt with no family help is a good idea?[/quote] Lots of people do. Lots. And the financial plan is a job. But things don’t always pan out as planned. [/quote]
