Look at everybody in here laughing at the victim... y’all gon learn tho... soon enough........
My pops told me straight to get into Biology so I could get into med school after I graduated from High School. Haitian parents don’t play that shyt. They expect you to major in something meaningful not some bullshyt Political Science major.Not really true.
My mother always tried to push me to be a doctor or engineer, she knew what was up
Then again my mother is African so it’s a bit different.
I know I'm going to get flack for this, but this is another reason we need to get married. Combined incomes means more money to pay off debt quicker. I've listened to plenty of Dave Ramsey where white couples pay off debt together, without regard of who it belongs to. They both pick up extra jobs, prioritize and work together on the plan.
Nothing wrong with it if you're actively working on trying to achieve a goal that will increase your income or if you're saving to cop a house. Now if you're staying there and you're not improving your life then yea you need to bouncePeople gotta stop living for their parents.
Your parents are gonna grow old and die and youre gonna be by yourself one day
Its your life. Not theirs.
People gotta do whats best for them... Not blindly following their parents or society.
Real cats won’t knock this at all... If you thorough and understand marriage, your spouse has been properly vetted and that financial plan has been put to paper and is already in execution before wedding planning is even a serious thought
fukk that. This woman has no respect for money. A man would have to be an absolute fool to get with that.I know I'm going to get flack for this, but this is another reason we need to get married.

She needs to flee leave the country. There's no practical way to pay this.
If she paired with someone and they could clear $100k a a couple, they should be able to save about $40k a year. More if they threw in some odd jobs, part-time job, overtime, etc. I'd put the loans in forbearance for a year, save up a lump sum, toss it on it and then make regular monthly payments, while continuing to save another lump sum. It would have to be like $40-$50k and you need a second income or a very good income to do that. Plus when you're married, you can save a little on taxes and it increases your net pay. It can be done in less than 5 years depending on how cheap they live can live as a couple and money they can save together.
I wouldn't knock any dude that would shy away from that, but with discipline it can be done. That's really the only way it can be done.
I agree in principle however any professional man making 75k+ will not see her as wifey material once he finds out how dire her financial situation she is in. He will avoid her like a plague. And he has good reason too because she will be seen as a major financial drain.If she paired with someone and they could clear $100k a a couple, they should be able to save about $40k a year.

If you aren't majoring in engineering, computer science, biochem/med, or healthcare...you REALLY need to think about if it is worth it...and if you majoring in those...it still MIGHT NOT BE WORTH IT...
There's no practical way to pay this.
