Student Loans
I knew it was time to pay the piper but DAMN! Anyhoo, if I double up on payments bankrate calculated that it can be done in 4 years, which is too long, 3 would be good so I'm done by the time I'm 50, guess I need to belt tighten the budget a little bit more. The good thing is I have no credit card debt or car loan and thanks to Dave Ramsey where every dollar has a name in my monthly budget I "found" money where I thought it didn't exist.....
Anyone have any successes to share in paying off student loans??"The soul takes flight to the world that is invisible, but there arriving she is sure of bliss and forever dwells in paradise." - Plato

Re: Student Loans
Where do you work? If you work for a non profit or in education, your loans can be cancelled within 5-10 years.

Re: Student Loans
I put in my app soon after I posted I would. Had to call to follow up. JUST received a letter that I'll be notified once they're reviewed my application. No target date given, so I will be following up again next week. I'm trying to get this DONE.
