So true, schools are predators looking for young adults to promise them false success. They should not be able to qualify for a loan of that magnitude without an income. Its an automatic trap.

[@98fawaz]

had you signed off on a student loan and gone to college, you woulda realized that you can only get into law school at the age of 22 at the very least

[@aplacetobewithmythoughts7428]

Nobody should for a useless degree. No bank would approve that loan.

[@ciobalina7445]

98fawaz She might be a foreigner, like me. In Europe, for example, you can go to Law School directly after you finish highschool, at 18-19 years old. In fact, I think only Law Schools and Medicine Schools in the USA require you have other college studies before you apply to them. In most countries you can go there directly.

[@ciobalina7445]

@Big Bubba This is applicable only to the US; in other countries, you can apply directly to law school after high school, which means you are around 18-19. Foreigners also watch Dave Ramsey. Maybe she didn't know or simply made a general comment.

[@youarefatmia]

My husband took a 60K student loan for law school and was still 55k in debt when I met him. He had been working for 2 years by then but only paid 5k off, which is unacceptable to me. Still I ended up marrying him and together we paid off the rest of the loan in 8 months. We rarely dined out or bought anything nice in the last 8 months. When it comes to paying off student loans, it's all about living within your means.

[@michelleowenwest4249]

It’s a common misconception, fluffed up by the law schools themselves, that attorneys make 6-figures a couple of years out and lots of them go to big law. Well big law accounts for a single digit percentage of most law schools and real workaday legal jobs don’t touch 6 figures in a major market like Washington DC for the first 7 years. I can’t imagine how long it takes in small markets like Charlotte. Law schools lie about their employment statistics. Unfortunately many of us were already waist deep in debt when the 2008 financial crisis pulled back the curtain on the profession. I relied on the employment statistics in choosing the state, cheapest option available. If I had known the real numbers, I probably would have made different choices. I expect that’s true of many young attorneys these days. Good luck, comrade!

[@jeremykooi6215]

Dave you are correct, but the problem is when you are older you are wiser with money, and know better on what loans you should take out. When you are 17 &18 years going to college you have no idea about how to save or use money. The problem is you can't give large loans to 17,18,19, &20 years they don't have a good grasp of the concept of money, until near your 30's.

[@michiganfamily1]

+billyboby28 If you wish to follow Dave's plan, then he would say keep $1,000 in your savings for emergencies and put the rest toward your debt. Once the debt is completely gone, build your savings back up to at least 6 months of your income. Once you've done that, consider moving or buying a house. If you're going to buy a house, save up another 20% of the cost of what you want to spend as a down payment, and get a 15-year mortgage. It sounds like your living conditions currently are pretty miserable. I think Dave's advice would be to stay put until you have paid off all of your student loan debt and have that 6-months of savings. Then consider moving somewhere else. That's just my interpretation, though. Good luck!

[@asiroproductions]

$330/month for rent? Sounds like you're living with roommates in an effed up neighborhood. I was like you but I was paying $675/month w/ 5 roommates. I lived there for two years.

They're both lawyers and they make $80K combined?

5/16/19.....This guy owes $21,000. for his college/law school debt.... but his fiance owes $220,000. for her college/law school debt. He should pay for his debt....then let her pay for hers. Over half couples married today end up divorced---so WHY should this guy pay off her debt & take a chance on divorce? This guy could pay off his bebt & put healthy amount towards his retirement. AFTER she pays her debt in full, she can start working on retirement. SORRY but that's the only FAIR way to start off this marriage!

[@lavender8blue]

I dont think this guy has any clue on how student loans actually work. That is not a 225,000.00 debt. That family is going to pay well over 600,000.00

[@user-lu6yg3vk9z]

Average Salary for Lawyers is 60K.

Buddy, your parents sound like they failed!!! 😂

[@WookieSenshi]

You're making $40k? I'd say as of that point keep your lifestyle at half that or less. It's not difficult. And I sure wouldn't be having a kid at that point.

[@KiLLED5639]

This one really pissed Dave off. I'm not sure how he kept his cool.

[@MichaelCarrPilot]

Great advice of continuing the lifestyle at the combined income and whatever raise or extra per year towards the loans but continue that same earlier lifestyle.

[@TwisteddxGamerr]

get into IT ( Information Technology )

[@JustineCarissa]

Haha love this field!

[@mr.gibbons6030]

If you have variable interest rates, then you want to make sure you refinance with fixed interest rates.

[@mr.gibbons6030]

Everyone must have automatic payment directly deducted from their bank account. You will be eligible for an interest rate reduction.

[@LaMayimba90210]

80k combined?? What??

[@brentonpetitt6766]

I wonder what tier law school they went to. 40k sounds REALLY low, even for first year. It also sounds like they are close to DC. They can't get a government contract or a state job? To get them on debt forgiveness?
