Yeah lady, your partner is smart - but not smart enough to not reproduce with you

smart enough to not marry someone with about 400K, but dumb enough to be a cuck...

You would subtract the job from both sides, not divide...

And masters degrees are free in STEM fields, either because you're working as a TA and doing school full time or because your employer is paying for you to get it part-time.
You have to really suck ass to need to pay for a STEM masters.

Or go teach at a Title 1 school in the ghetto for 5 years continuously (you can't take a year off for your first kid or switch to a good school then come back to do a fifth year, etc), then the feds forgive your student loans.

I wonder what those two Masters degrees are in?


From my comment in the other thread.

bachelor degree+ Xmasters degree + Ymasters degree + job = 380K
Divide both sides by job
solve for X & Y and

Someone with XY chromosomes wouldn't obtain those degrees and therefore have jobs.

The science is settled.

these days, the monthly payment is mostly income based so when youre broke and earning shit you pay very little. do that for about 20 years and the debt is forgiven.

So...do you actually have to be in school to take out a "student" loan? I know my cousin used a lot for living expenses so it's not just for tuition.  

Reading these stories it seems like they give out money like candy with no collateral. If only I could have taken out a $500k loan in 2009, put it into the S&P 500, and I'd be sitting good right now.

from two master’s degrees. What should I do?

Question: “I’m 35 years old, I have one kid and another on the way. My partner is afraid to marry me because of my debt, and I don’t have a steady income. I have two masters degrees, and I owe $380K in student loans. I’m on the income program already and am worried about what happens when payments resume in January. I can’t afford to have the loans forgiven, because I think it’s a taxable event. Is there anything I can do to protect my family and lessen the blow for me?”



Yeah lady, your partner is smart - but not smart enough to not reproduce with you

In her defense:

Having kids might only be possible at a certain age, meaning if she didn't have them then, that chance might have never come up again. It's a once in a lifetime thing. It's not like buying a car.

It may seem that you can just delay but it's not a car purchase, often it just doesn't work that way. Usually in life you get one shot at something important, like kids or marriage. You think you can come back to something and do it and the stars never precisely align again.

this doesn't nullify her idiotic financial decision-making, I get that.

But the ones who got 'their ducks in a row' are the 40-something with nice income, little or no debt and no kids.

Iv got a thread about it, most women want to be mothers at some point, most mothers want to be stay at home moms once the kid pops out.. It’s prob better be honest about it and better off finding a good husband with good job and skip college and the debt that goes with it, getting a career job they will dump when first kid comes along, or be forced to keep working due to all their debt while the cry about not being able to spend more time with their kids.

yes you have to be a "student" enrolled someplace, but also yes the loans are offered for well beyond the cost of tuition.

the amounts have gotten higher but this also happened back in the 80s. i knew folks back then who borrowed the max and lived quite well for being unemployed students.

Her coworker in residency on the other hand still has close to $300,000 in medical school debt after 20 yrs as an MD and she’s something like 54 or 55 right now and basically said she’s going to have to work until she’s in her 70s just to pay her loans off. Of course she also has to drive a Lexus because of her image and she has to buy an expensive house in the historic district because of her image so there are certain life choices that played into that.

They would be fine.

With interest accruing, even living like a pauper that money is never going to be repayable. The fact that our government allows 18 year olds to take out a 100k plus loan that cant be taken care of in bankrupcy is criminal imo, and the institutions of "higher learning" that are telling these kids that they will be able to get a decent job and pay this back should be the ones footing the bill if there is a default. The government drove up the price of higher education by backing these loans, and is as resposible as anyone for the way this has turned out.

I worked with a guy, his parents paid for his BS degree, but he wanted an apartment not live at home so he took out student loans. Then he wanted to go to law school and his parents refused to co sign the loans. He was all butt hurt over that. The guy worked as an oil changer at the company I worked for.

I met a guy that wanted to go to medical school, he had paid for his under graduate degree. He was married and had one kid. He went in the service going in as a second Lieutenant. The government paid for medical school and then he had to serve 5 years in as a Captain. He got paid to go to medical school. If you want something there is a way to get it without loans.
