I'm 37 and paid off all of my ~80k in student loans (for a communications degree) since my 2009 graduation earlier this year... How the hell does this person still owe so much on their student loans?
Pretty easy: I owe $135k on the $60k I took out in 2005
Congrats on having enough income to pay your loans quickly. Most of us aren't as fortunate.
