"Don’t worry about the student debt too much"

How about instead you should try to get a job to start paying it off asap? "Not worrying about it" could be interpreted as "debt is ok- it is what our government does, so rack it up".

Well, the next sentence clarifies with "Take what you need and no more". Debt isn't all bad, it has it's uses, particularly when young and has got a lot of bad press these last few years.

If leveraged correctly, debt can be used to significant advantage.

I think the core point of the article stands. It's a bad idea to quit college for most, even if student loans are building up.
