[quote=Anonymous]What is this person's background? It doesn't seem like her family was in a position to help her pay for college and they may not have been in a position to help her understand the financial burden she was taking on. Perhaps this person thought she was going to major in business when she took on the debt and then for whatever reason, ended up being drawn to education. She is young at 23 and you are probably young too, so the stakes are a little lower then if you were 30 or 35 and she didn't need to tell you about her financial situation this early on, so doing that shows that she has a lot of integrity and isn't trying to "trap" you in anything. I would encourage her to explore loan forgiveness (I think some or all? public school teachers are eligible after 10 years). The other thing that I would add is that people change careers. A lot could change for her in the next ten years. I wouldn't write her off. [/quote]
