I’m repaying mine, and will be for a long time. If I had it to do over again, I would choose to take it out over and over again as it has provided me a great and lucrative career that I otherwise could not have. That said, I would also love for mine to be paid off with some of the trivial government spending as opposed to the BS it gets spent on anyway.
I also can’t help but find it terribly silly when someone who paid $100 per class 40 years ago starts to have an opinion on modern student loans. I’m glad you could pay for your schooling as you went with the money you earned at a part time burger flipping job, but that isn’t and hasn’t been the case for a long, long time. I see people mention over and over again amounts of 10k, 15k, 20k, and it shows how out of touch people are on this issue if they think that’s what a degree costs today.
