Personal responsibility is important. Buying a new car was clearly a bad idea. But ignoring a system that encourages these poor decisions is equally irresponsible.

the system is freedom, IE where adults are free to engage in transactions and plot their own future. don't try to peddle any nannyism bullshit, i see that shit coming from a mile away

if it was the system, everyone would fall into this trap. but tens of millions dont because theyre smart enough to live intentionally and think critically.

There is 1.5 trillion of debt, clearly many are falling into it.

As I said I am not complaining about the debt itself. I am complaining that the interest means I will have to sink $700 minimum per month to make any noticeable damage. Unless I want to live my life miserably until I am 40, its going to take awhile to pay that off.

Good news is I am not having kids so even if I die in debt there will be nobody for them to chase.

it's that much because some people like you over decades made bad choices.

what is your interest rate on the loans? you should be making dents to the principal even with the minimum.

and no, youre not listening. you dont need to live terribly until youre 40. all you need to do is stop making stupid fucking decisions like a $300 car payment and for the next two years no fancy vacations, no wasting money eating out instead of cooking, etc, while you clean up your mess like a responsible adult
