[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$160k between DH and I. We started out at $300k about 9 years ago. We have been working as government attorneys for the last 4 years and we are in the IBR program. The remaining loans will be about $100k in 6 years and this will be forgiven. We're very thankful for the program. We've purchased a house, funded our retirements, had two kids, and funded their 529 accounts. Considering I telework two days a week and have a 40 hour work week, I'm kind of surprised myself how good things have turned out. [/quote] Things have not turned out as well as . . . paying off $ 120K in total student loans by yourself (without government assistance) and in their entirety while earning a combined less than $ 46 K/yr. for the first 3-4 years of your careers, and working hard to earn a current salary of $ 2 m/yr. Karma . . . she is a sweetheart! :D[/quote]
