    If you're in med school you probably already have a bachelor's, so it's not a total loss.

    I got a 50-60k government student loan that I've barely made so much as a dent into over the past ~8 years.

    And that's just for a B.A.

    Med school - just don't flunk out.

    If you've made it that far, just keep your eyes on the prize.

    Many years ago my plan was to go to med school (either Neurology or Psychiatry for specialty choice - perhaps even Anesthesiology if the first two don't work out).

    If you're close enough to internship and residency, just power through the rest. If you lose interest in the subject matter / career, but still have tremendous debts to pay, you could always leverage your prescription-writing abilities...

    Oxy scripts can pay off your gubmint debts in no time at all.

    You must have went to a decent school for all that time. No community college?

    It was actually a pretty mediocre school. The student loan covered more than tuition.

    Part of it went towards rent and other living expenses, and, as a function of time, more and more of it funded my gradually worsening heroin addiction.

    Also, I had a very atypical postsecondary educational experience.

    I started by retaking like a dozen high school classes when I was about 23 at a community college type place, then went balls to the wall and started taking 6 to 10 uni level classes per semester (by attending more than one school); no summers off.

    So I actually finished the bulk of my postsecondary classes over a two year period.

    Impressive. I did a lot worse in college when I only took 2 classes instead of full time.

    Be fucked because student loans can't be wrapped into a bankruptcy
