I am $180k in debt. I have a PHD and am a tenured professor — my students are in the same boat, sinking in debt. I pay $1100/month in student loan debt, half of my rent. We MUST #CancelStudentDebt. Wall St got bailed out, what about us?! #bernie2020 @BernieSanders

Maybe you should have chose an industry like wall street, that is critical to the US economy.#PayYourBills

Hum, not our fault. Maybe you should have gotten a degree in finance. I worked to help put myself through college and when I graduated I had zero debt, no sympathy here. Took a little longer, but hey I also retired early.
It is called take care of your self and planning!

PHD in what? Cultural dance? Maybe you should have thought about that before you took out your loan. I can't afford a Range Rover either.

Rob a bank. Same thing as stealing it from me.

Here’s an idea: all that $2200 you pay in rent every mo? Move. Put half that towards your student loans.

Not gonna feel sorry for a tenured professor who wants to keep up her standard of living but not have to pay back what was borrowed on her own free will.

So people who never went to College, should pay for your PH.D? Cool story #taxationistheft

Tenured in what, social sciences? Because this is the sort of stupidity that comes with the social "sciences."

Oh my goodness Heather. Who advised you to take on such an enourmous debt load. Did anyone do a cost benefit analysis with you before embarking on this?

You raise a good point.

We shouldn't let people who can't pay off their own debts go around teaching other people the same bad habits.
