[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be worried if they marry someone who has student loans.  That is a huge burden in life.  It wasn't such a big problem in the last generation, but nowadays no one can bear a 400K student loan in a marriage.[/quote]

It’s a legit concern.  My kids are full pay.  Now suddenly they are in debt of 400k by marriage.  Are you kidding me?[/quote]

That is awful, agreed.   The cost has gotten out of control.  Is there any hope?  I think we are at point in time where huge changes are happening, and it is impossible to count on past outcomes.[/quote]

If someone my child was dating had $400k of debt, the larger issue is why in the world they thought that was a good idea and how they did not figure out a way to attend college for a tiny fraction of that. There is literally NO reason on earthy to graduate undergrad with that kind of debt. None. If you have true need, go to a school that meets need. If you just don't have private school money, go-instate. No debt. [/quote]
