The business of university is insane!! People fail to see that college and university is a business and and people are overpaying for a product

[@AnthonyBrusca]

Universities are nonprofit or public institutions, funded not just by tuition, but by direct government funding, donations, an endowment, and sports. The only scams are the online and for-profit schools (including trade schools) and services like textbooks. Capitalism is great but there are such things as "market failure" (the technical term), which exists in the healthcare industry, the education industry, and in anything that pollutes. Basically where a market incentivizes the wrong outcome BOTH for individuals AND for society as a whole.

[@Jdonaleshen]

Anthony Brusca non profits and public institutions are still businesses. Teachers are being paid. It is a transaction. The trouble is that it is a transaction that many students are being pushed into because they are told that is the thing to do. Funny part is that my university education was useless. Thank god I didn’t borrow money for it. My uneducated husband however makes more than 95% of university graduates

[@ian-hm6cx]

Where do you live

[@jamesb93612]

lemon California.

[@enucleatustertium4243]

@@jamesb93612 that explains a lot . California usually pays more, on average, for most professions and let me tell you that there is a reason for it. The cost of living is extremely high in CA. If the caller lives in an area where the cost of living is lower, they are actually making the equivalent you make if not more. It all has to do with the cost of living and take home pay. Which in California for someone in your tax bracket might be about 9-10%. Some states don't have state income taxes or are relatively lower at around 4% and in most states property taxes are less than 1% whereas in California are much more higher. I don't know the exact percentage but I know people that have to pay between 4 and 10k a year. All these thing along with the cost of living in California, believe me it's expensive. I know since I've lived in many places California included. I'd have to make about 130 to 150% more in California than in most places just to have the same lifestyle elsewhere. So the way I see it, it is not a disparity in salary, it's more about the economics and cost of living relative to the area where you live. congratulations on your good salary and good job sir!

[@jamesb93612]

Enucleatus Tertium actually, where I am I within a few percent of the cost of living of where the caller is from. So not that much difference. I don’t live anywhere near the larger coastal cities. Cost of living is not really a factor in this instance. That is why I was surprised.

How can I become a caller? I need help from Dave as well...

[@leahmcdermott4189]

If seems like all these people with great degrees have absolutely no knowledge or understanding of basic maths. Anytime Dave asks questions regarding the length/time of predicted debt payoff, they just stay silent and Dave has to answer himself. It’s like these people have NO clue. Absolutely embarrassing! 😂😩

I’m 21years old. I have no debt and I only make $22k a year and living with my parents. I have $1,500 in ER fund and $5k In savings. I just bought my fist car in cash. So I was thinking if it a good idea to just quit my job and find a better job in another state?

[@averysantiago265]

Electro Dvil I can make that happen, I’m going to get 2 jobs and work 65 hours a week for 3 months.

I mean ur gonna make a lot money, just live very cheap and save a lot of money and maybe a second job if possible or side hustle

[@kennethandrew3709]

I was thinking of a radiologist. All my doctors that I work with are saying it’s on average $250,000-$300,000. The good news is i know the military has a program where they will pay off your debt. But you have to do 10 years of service. Idk if it would be worth it

Serious question: what constitutes beans and rice to Americans, to the point that your family thinks you’re crazy?? I come from an immigrant family, and only recently we’ve gotten up to the $50,000 range of income. Granted, we live in a cheaper area (but Colorado isnt that expensive). My parents have a mortgage, and we live fairly comfortably, I would def not call it rice and beans. How in the heck is living on 60k really frugal, even if the cost of living was a bit higher? To me, 30k would be beans and rice, not 60.

[@raulgolfs]

My girl and I plan to have around this much of total student loan when we get married. I’m wondering should be start paying these down as one? Or wait till after the wedding in a year? 🤔

[@csimpsonjtd]

Pay them down now. Go to the courthouse when it comes wedding time. My wife and I have about $140K combined. THE worse feeling ever. We're chipping away but I wish we knew about FPU when we were married back in 2012

[@Uncleamo42]

Begin paying them down individually, not as one. You're not one (married) yet.

[@csimpsonjtd]

@Justice had it right. I wasn't clear in my response but pay individually since you two aren't married yet but begin paying on them with gazelle intensity today.

[@raulgolfs]

Justice Kyei yeah I agree we’ve been paying individually. But here’s is substantially more than mine. I wonder if starting the snowball together would be faster. 😐

[@raulgolfs]

Charles Simpson Sr. I feel ya on this one. We’ve been on it. I just did the numbers and I feel we’d get ahead of this a lot sooner. Idk it’s tempting to start together but I understand what you guys are saying. Appreciate the help. 🙏🏽

Economics degree is practically a math degree due to the fact that you have to take Calculus 1 & 2 (at least at my college).

[@nauticalstar8363]

Hi Dave, I am currently trying to get a loan for new-construction-to-permanent loan and was wondering if it is reasonable for me to ask the lender for list of fees that I will incur to obtain the loan for the construction (closing cost.) Our credit scores are pretty decent and we have enough equity that we are confident that we will have no trouble getting a loan.

[@albertsinkfield2629]

If they pay $25 k per year,then they will pay the whole debt in 10 to 15 years

[@artistman75]

What about a co-signer? Would the co-signer be responsible for the loan in the event of the students death?

[@chiefzackery6651]

StirCrazy parent plus Loan no. There are no co-signers on anything but plus loans. If the loan is not federally insured and they co-signed, absolutely they still owe it.

Americas student loan system is so dumb. In australia we have subsidized education and what loans we do have to repay are interest free and you only have to pay it once you reach a certain income. It's repaid the though the tax system.
