Don't you think that is is quite odd for a self proclaimed brillant man who happens to be black was not able to get a full scholarship to Harvard? He sure should have.

Now we don't know this for a fact because he had all his records sealed but he is either lying about being so brilliant, or he is lying about who actually paid for this education.

I still find it odd that no one at Hardvard remembered him? You'd think a few people would have remembered him.

I really can't say I know anyone who is in their late 40's and still paying off student loans.
You have clearly defined yourself with this post. Thanks....

don't need to prove anything. if you can't pay off your student loans by the time you are 40, you had better be a doctor. like I said, if you can't, they didn't major in finance. I didn't know that you were talking about tards, as they would be the only ones paying off student loans in their 40's. I think 18 years is enough time. now how bout you give your little fingers a rest son.

[SIZE=2]Types of Repayment Plans [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]The repayment plans are as follows: [/SIZE]

  • [SIZE=2]
  • Standard Repayment. Under this plan you will pay a fixed monthly amount for a loan term of up to 10 years. Depending on the amount of the loan, the loan term may be shorter than 10 years. There is a $50 minimum monthly payment.
  • Extended Repayment. This plan is like standard repayment, but allows a loan term of 12 to 30 years, depending on the total amount borrowed. Stretching out the payments over a longer term reduces the size of each payment, but increases the total amount repaid over the lifetime of the loan.
  • Graduated Repayment. Unlike the standard and extended repayment plans, this plan starts off with lower payments, which gradually increase every two years. The loan term is 12 to 30 years, depending on the total amount borrowed. The monthly payment can be no less than 50% and no more than 150% of the monthly payment under the standard repayment plan. The monthly payment must be at least the interest that accrues, and must also be at least $25.
  • Income-Contingent Repayment. Payments under the income contingent repayment plan are based on the borrower's income and the total amount of debt. Monthly payments are adjusted each year as the borrower's income changes. The loan term is up to 25 years. At the end of 25 years, any remaining balance on the loan will be discharged. The write-off of the remaining balance at the end of 25 years is taxable under current law. There is a $5 minimum monthly payment. Income Contingent Repayment is available only for Direct Loan borrowers.
  • Income-Sensitive Repayment. As an alternative to income contingent repayment, FFELP lenders offer borrowers income-sensitive repayment, which pegs the monthly payments to a percentage of gross monthly income. The loan term is 10 years.
  • Income-Based Repayment. The College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007 introduced income-based repayment as a more generous alternative to income-sensitive and income-contingent repayment, starting on July 1, 2009. Unlike income-contingent repayment and income-sensitive repayment, it is available in both the Direct Loan and FFEL programs. Income-based repayment is like income contingent repayment, but caps the monthly payments at a lower percentage of a narrower definition of discretionary income.

Apparently, one does not have to be a 'tard to take 18 or more years to pay back a college loan.

Well his mother was dead from cancer. But his Grandmother was the one he claimed had a bad heart and had broker her hip. (remember he left the campaign and flew to Hawaii for 4 hrs to say goodbye) but then once she died we found out she had cancer, not the broken hip story. She was white and he only displayed her pics when he was in Kansas or was in front of white seniors.
