Just because you got subsidized loans at 3% or whatever doesn't mean everyone is like you or that I didn't do my research beforehand. Sorry I didn't want to gamble with ONLY 190k debt from Michigan/UVA by taking the scholly. And I lol that you old XOers rail against boomers but can't fathom anyone paying full price for a T6 now that interest rates and tuition are higher.

Oh because toiling away at 9-5. 50k/yr with a lib arts degree is what every xo striver with their brown/dart/penn poly sci degree would have done when they had a very good chance at making a career for themselves at a school that still places ~80% into 160k+bonus firm jobs. It's just ironic to me that you rail against boomers who had it SOOO much better than you but then when you had it better than my generation someone people who made a >EV long term financial decision (albeit a less +EV one due to external conditions beyond ones control) that person is a MORON. lolwow

i don't rail against boomers faggot. Stop tilting at xoxo cliches to justify your fucking retarded decision to go 250K into debt for law school. Enjoy your soul crushing debt and 8% interest. You'll be paying that shit off for 20 years after you flame out of biglaw and end up making 80K somewhere. You are seriously going to want to killself. Holy shit you fucking little faggots are pathetic.

Aren't you paying $20k/ yr on interest alone?

That's like 1600/month purely on interest.

Put another way, the average BIGLAW associate lasts about 3 years. You'd pay off that much in loans in 3 years if you put EVERY SINGLE PENNY of your paycheck into loans.

It is just sad that LS was just 32k tuition a few years ago like 2006 and now it is insane 50k and ppl have 250k in debt which even on a BIGLAW salary is simply insane esp if you are paying 6% interest. That is just insane.

When I graduated loans were 3% when I consolidated. Having a lot of debt was like 100k. It was still manageable.

It is just sad. You should consider kill self bro. Sorry, but I mean you likely wont pay off 270k especially living a MFH lifestyle

Just go very aggressive your two years to get the total interest payments under control - you should be able to cut that in half or so.

put in 3 years, lateral to gov't, cop dat pslf while working 9-6 for 10 years, then come back as a partner just before you hit 40. this will give you the greatest financial outcome and will let you live a decent life in your late twenties / mid thirties, instead of wanting to kill yourself daily.

Totally doable. On $160K, you should be taking home $8K or so post-tax. These are 30 year loans?

You'll want to stay in Biglaw for five years. If you can do that and live a law school lifestyle for five years, you can pay this off.

270 takes into account interest until the repayment period, right

because i took out less than 200k and ended up with slightly more than 200k by the time of repayment

that said, you're looking at 7 years minimum if you live like a reasonable person

and no matter what, do not have kids until you have paid off your loans
