Repayment through the feds or some other repayment?

I've got about the same amount of debt and salary (I posted earlier) and would kill for a position with repayment.

I have repayment through my local government job--a program that repays because I am in the healthcare field and serve the underserved.

My agency helped pay off the loans.

No, the American taxpayer paid off your loans.

Yes, because the PP is a PUBLIC SERVANT for all taxpayers, including you.

Owed $0 (Had scholarships for undergrad and a fellowship for my MS) now make $115k. DH owed about $25k which we paid off early once we stopped being able to deduct the interest. He now makes $125k.

Owed $130k after law school; now down to about $58k a little more than a decade later. I make $155k as a government lawyer, and received a total of $12k in loan repayment funds on my federal loans a few years back from my agency.

Original amount - 200k combined w/ husband, now $130k. We now make $270k combined but he was unemployed for 2 years which slowed down repayment. This year we're hoping to make some progress.

Orig. amt - $65k; still owe $30k; make 200k. 2.875% interest rate provides little incentive to accelerate payments, but I pay about $200 extra per month just because I hate watching that interest compound!

Are you part time at a law firm? That's a great salary for working p/t!

I am at a firm but I work 75% so it works out to around 40 hours a week. So part time is somewhat of a relative term .

I don't have either (loans or an income).

DH has about $10,000 in loans...total annual income about $120,000
