I borrowed on a student loan when I got my Doctorate degree but obsessed and paid it off within 2 years of graduation I think, what a fool I was to pay it back right?
Making student loans federally guaranteed was a big mistake. Was that Obama?
That needs to be rescinded yesterday.
One of my kids went to an expensive private university mostly on grants, no loans. But her senior year the school cut it in half. We had to come up with the cash.
She also got a loan. That money went to the school not her bank account. What happened to that?

My wife told me stories of her classmates at GMU bragging about spending their loan money on luxury handbags and plastic surgery.
Back in the 1980s, my college roomate had a friend at our school who used part of her student loan money to fill her closet with expensive dresses and other clothing that she only wore once. Students have always abused student loan money far beyond the "needs" of attending college. It is not new. It is just far worse today.
I had a student loan. All of it went directly to tuition and books. Today, students buy cars and pay their rent with student loan money. No wonder some end up in hock for 30 years.
The abuse documented in the OP's story is horrific on steroids, but hardly surprising.

She paid it off her first year of teaching.
Worse than federally guaranteed...Obama nationalized them just like health insurance.

Yes! It was Obama. And remember how it was going to save us sooooo much money that we could use it to finance Obamacare. Obama was a total crook!
She lived at home and didn't have any bills. He left out that part.
