I guarantee you not a single person has actually been telling people to get liberal arts degrees for the last 10 years but millenials still whine about $200k college debts with no job prospects

RaySmuckles posted:he was out of state? plus the loan cover living expenses? i'm not defending him, i'm just marveling a the level of debt $9k/semester max if he's out of state. $66k in living expenses for 9 months is pretty lol maybe he fell for a few dozen IRS phone scams

RaySmuckles posted:i assume he thought he'd be there for 2 years so that's $36k and my grad school grad girlfriend says you basically double that to cover living expenses so maybe it was only $72k plus interest? what does it matter if he thought he'd be paying for 2 years of tuition if he only paid for 1 if i take out a loan for $20k and don't actually use it that's not debt lol

RaySmuckles posted:yeah except it wasn't at all. we were talking about rent and how he and his girlfriend are saving a ton of money by living in a house with 2 other roommates to which he said he wouldn't be able to live in denver if it wasn't for his particular living circumstances. then he came forth with a description of his debt, completely unsolicited. not very candid if he lied about how much school cost him tbh
