Perplexing.
Why not pay your debts then? I totally understand debt forgiveness for extenuating circumstances (and imo, it's a crime that student loan debt can't be forgiven, and the interest rates are often predatory—especially in the case of med school and law school), but this just sounds like stealing with extra steps.
As I said, I'm a bit perplexed.
No mention of undergrad so hopefully she did go in-state for much lower or free tuition.
I have 2 kids in college and a recent graduate. I am routinely horrified by the choices that some students make in going out of their home state or to a private school instead of a public one.
But jokes aside, I'm curious too. Nothing there seems too extravagant, people move abroad all the time. Maybe it then takes them 30 years to realize they didn't have it so bad after all and move back. I'm not speaking for the US here specifically, but more generally. Those longer term stories I think are more interesting.
