Perfectly healthy and normal! It's the student's fault for not being 100% savvy with which colleges are scams or not!

Also nope you can't declare bankruptcy because fuck you!

it's crazy when you think about how much more expensive tuition is compared to how much it might have been when the people in the OP went to college, and costs will most likely keep rising. and more and more people are going to college now than they were in the past.

so as bad as student debt might be for senior citizens now, I hate to think about how bad it will be in the future.

Aren't those elderly who co-signed loans for their kids and grandkids?

Anyway, never take student loans, its not worth it.

Go your local schools instead of crossing state lines.

Or go to Job Corps, or join the military, or get an apprenticeship for a professional trade

My dad has student loans from when he went to college lol. He never even graduated. I think they're privately held or something, they don't come out of his SS

True, but none of that changes the fact that the whole system regarding student loans is fucked in the US. It shouldn't even get to that level that senior citizens are still having that much debt.

In some ways a student debt which takes decades to pay off is sort of like a stimulus package...
