Paying Student Loans

Stay Strong.

 

I have been trying to pay back a student loan for between 10 and 15 years now and it has been hectic.

 

Nobody told me that it would be this hard. When I signed my name on the dot­ted line to get a loan for college tuition it never even crossed my mind that I would regret it. I have tried everything to get a job and even asked my family to help me pay it back. But I tell you one thing I will never take another one. It has ruined my credit and my social life. I wake up every day trying to pay a bill or figure out some kind of way to make some money. In to­day’s world nearly everyone has a student loan now so I know I am not by myself. What I have been through is a lot: trying to juggle two jobs and making sure every­one gets paid has been made even harder due to the fact that the interest and pen­alty charges on these things are so high.

 

So wish me luck America because it ain’t easy on the bottom.
