Just got done with a text message. Hope, for student...for America (government, support)

[Free-R]

female texter: "Guess who has the 2 biggest of their loans paid off? That's right, me and [name]! It feels great =)

me: "That is so super fantastic!! Wah? No government bailout?

female texter: "Haha!! Na, just hard work and living below our income to pay off loans. Who knew!?"

me: "Would I have permission to post your texts on the Internet?"

female texter: "Fine with me."

me: "OK, thanks."

When you don't rely on others, and instead rely on and believe in yourself, there is hope.

Hope, for real Americans. Restore your faith in yourself. Restore America.

I know of another couple who just paid off their student loans a few years ago... A very famous political couple. They currently live in a big white house.

There isn't a government bailout on student loans. They can't even be discharged in bankruptcy. Yey, for your friend for doing the basics.

You're so full of crap, don't try and convince us you have conversations with females other than your mom.

Sounds like the American Dream.

There are deferments and other government-supported rules that surround loans.

This is fabricated.

You know, I find it amazing that it is noteworthy when somebody lives below their income level. That, to me, is a very sad commentary on our society.

Of course you live below your income level so that you can cope with unforeseen circumstances; so that you have a safety net, etc.
