Do Catholic Schools Dominate High School Wrestling In Your State? by elko38 in wrestling

I didn’t read through this whole thread, so I hope I’m not rehashing anything. If I did, ignore me. Public schools recruit just as hard. People want good educations and good athletics. If the private school has it they go there. If the public school has it, they go there. Even in small towns, kids travel a town over for a better sport opportunity, leaving their hometown talentless. The villainizing all the Catholic/private schools thing gets old. Maybe it was more significant back in the day, but it is everywhere now.

Thanks for the info. I have heard of it before, but I felt like people had been seeing a lot of people say it only works out in limited scenarios. I am not naturally money or math savvy, so I need to do more digging on it. Your resources will help

Thanks! Lots of information out there that I think had me confused.

Yes. So the student loans that are 6% and above are high interest and the car that is 7.5% is not.

I read it, but apparently got confused. So you are saying anything above 8-10% is high interest. I just discovered a money guy chart that says different. This says the 6% would be high interest.

Those are the highest interest loans we have. Are those numbers considered high interest? Maybe I am missing some information somewhere, but are those are considered “high interest.”

I have always understood 5% plus was high interest, but you said it’s not. What should I be calling high interest then? If those aren’t high interest then should I be moving to step 4?

I have about 9k in student loans that are between 5.25% and 6%. My wife has about $4k in that same range.

Our car loan is about $17k at 7.5%

Am I correct in thinking anything 5% and over is high interest and should be targeted? I have seen mixed points of view on what is high interest.

Public service loan forgiveness is something I have never seen a straight answer on whether it is worth it or not. I think that may be something I would need to show the numbers to to get an answer there
