My husband is American and I am Japanese and live in the United States. So it's the opposite situation to you. My husband graduated from University last December and has been looking for his job ever since, but couldn't even get an interview. After all, even if he got a bachelor's degree, he couldn't find a job and had to do physical labor for the past year. We plan to go back to Japan and pay a student loan if the house sells. If the house doesn't sell, he can't return the student loan in a lump sum, so he said he couldn't move to Japan.
This is big problem in USA I live in SanDiego,My daughter went top college,but But I didn’t support her(I’m single mom) Because I don’t believe college education I didn’t go college, But I have a success business in US College should be free Also They should teach about loan in high school

Please tell me you don't have to pay Sally Mae anymore because of that settlement
@TomoDana2 жыл бұрын
What settlement? 👀 I actually already paid everything off (minus federal loans which I don't have to pay currently) with my MIL's help, so I just pay her every month instead. So grateful!

@@TomoDana There was an issue with Sally Mae convincing people to reconsolidate their loans into plans that would make them spend more. There was a suit taken up and they had to forgive the balance of the loans for everyone they did that to.
Sorry for replying in English. Please use google translate if you need to. 🙏 I think the labor market has changed dramatically recently because of the pandemic. So many people have died, and workers have more power now, so many people are only willing to work better jobs with good pay now. Companies like Amazon can be pretty abusive towards their workers, and people are no longer willing to deal with it. In fact, a similar change happened after the Black Death pandemic. We are calling this huge change "the Great Resignation." Plus, jobs like Amazon do not pay enough to cover living expenses and student loan payments. If I had a child right now, I think I would recommend that they go to a cheaper college option, like community college. A lot of employers want to see a college degree, but the quality of the degree doesn't matter. However, I wish there were more options for apprenticeships and job training. I think this would be more helpful and practical for preparing young people for jobs.
If the husband who got the student loan couldn't pay the student loan there, does the wife have to pay his student loan in the future? Let me know about that, Dana.

I don't think so but I'm not 100% sure. It's a good question. I believe only the loan signer and cosigner (which for student loans is usually a parent) are financially responsible.

Well, a wife sometimes are his cosigner, does it means the wife is financially responsible there?
@hansasperger33763 жыл бұрын
Some states of United States are community property states. This means that every financial matters during marriage, both husband and wife are responsible for the debt. If the loan is made before marriage, the responsible party for the debt is the signer. Most states do not observe community property rule.

In Japan, if you graduate from university, society will accept it for the time being, but I feel that university students in Japan today do not study much. Certainly it may not be as expensive as a university in the United States. Most students earn tuition from part-time jobs and study secondarily. Also, in Japan, university entrance exams are a little difficult, but there is also a problem with the system that most university students can graduate without studying once they enter the university. In other words, Japanese university students feel that when they were in high school, they put too much energy into college entrance exams and that was the end of their studies. In that case, I think it's better to get a job without going to college. In Japan, there has been a culture that values craftsmen for a long time. For this reason, I would recommend a university if you have one because you will go to university and work hard to acquire advanced knowledge, but do not make your studies fragile, just acquire the name value of graduating from university. If there is, I don't think there is a need to go to university. Finally, there is a problem with the entrance examination system of Japanese universities. I don't think that the entrance exam does not need to be as strict as it is now. Make it possible for anyone to enter the university. However, graduating from a university should be as strict as a university in the United States. Students who do not study (dropout) should also be screened out. It was arbitrary and prejudiced, but I feel that the future of Japan is in jeopardy if it is not so much.

Interesting points. I don't know how university is in Japan, so this is interesting to hear about. To be honest, I think graduating from university in America is easy too. As long as you try, you can generally graduate. I plan on making a video soon about the university entrance requirements/process in America!

True! Although at least if you go to medical school, you will definitely get a good paying job after.
