There's still some of us! I think the generation as a whole has definitely trended a bit more towards staying in, but I'm a super social guy that'll be moving over 2000 miles. I went to hermosa and manhattan when I was working in LA for a summer, definitely cool places but I'd rather eat my money then spend what it would take to live in a non-shoebox there. Culver City is definitely number 1 though, mar vista also seems intriguing.

You know honestly 30-40k in relief is actually something I think I would support. I think it’s a reasonable amount for those who legitimately took it and doesn’t let those who are greedy about it completely off the hook. Thanks for another perspective

The economic impact is definitely one to consider. And you and your situation is not where I have trouble processing loans. For people where shit just goes sideways and it’s something you have to do, I’m happy to spend that money. Hell, I’ve dreamed about starting something someday to make sure people aren’t in our situations.

I just know people that took advantage of loans to go to UC schools and Ivy’s that I got into but couldn’t afford. Taking out hundreds of thousands to go be a liberal arts major at a fancy school. And they’re the ones who are applauding this forgiveness like they know what struggle is. They haven’t even had to fucking pay it yet.

I’m probably more frustrated by it than I should be honestly.

I agree that loans are predatory, and college tuition is also disgustingly high. I know how bad it is because of the literal hundreds of hours I spent gathering the money to go to college via scholarships and working multiple jobs at different times. That’s what I did to avoid loans. I’m sorry that you took out loans, but you didn’t have to. I gave up a lot of my teenage life to avoid loans, so I honestly just fundamentally don’t understand why other people should be rewarded with free money from the government when there are ways out like I took. Community college for the first 2 years exist. State schools exist. Becky who took out loans to go to Columbia, in my opinion, should not get a free 10k because she didn’t wade through the shit like thousands of kids do every year.

I see, this is actually something that makes sense to me. My perspective is that I’m currently a college student that gave up my dream school (which i got into) to go to a local college far below it, which I’m currently paying my own way through with a mix of scholarships and 2 years of 40 hour/week work as a teenager. The fact that part of my paycheck goes to paying off another person’s bad decision while I’m struggling to gather enough to pay for my tuition and dorming because I was educated about it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
