[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And I will repeat:

How is this possible? You were in college back in the early '80s, like me. College was so cheap back then! I walked away with only 10 grand in loans and I had it paid off in 5 years. [/quote]

Seriously, how do you not get this?  Even before the OP said it, graduate school.  Not everyone is like you.  Good lord.[/quote]

Np - Well, I am with PP. I am about OP's age too - went to school in mid 80s...etc. With 225K HHI, I can't understand how OP put herself in this situation. Unless OP was in grad school for, like, 10  years or longer. [/quote]

Why are you chiming in here just to say mean, unhelpful things?  [b]Seriously, what is the point? [/b] OP is in a bad spot - why pile on and try to make her feel worse???[/quote]

The point is OP may have a bigger issue - poor money management, lacks understanding on how to save and gain wealth - than this particular issue she is asking. If she feels bad, that's okay, she will get over it. But she needs to figure out fundamentally what she's doing wrong all these years. [/quote]
