You know you can just do a different job unrelated to your major and make more money, right? Most places just care if you got a degree. And if they care about a specific degree, and they're still only paying $40,000, who gives a shit?

Are you kidding me? That is fantastic. Have you ever heard of anything in the medical field? My income is less than 1/3 of my debit.

That’s actually not too bad and somewhat sustainable. Learn how to get those 0% APR for 24 months and switch them around when they expire. I did that about 3 times on one debt.

I know people with 100k school debt. Who can't even find jobs. You'll be fine. Just actively work it down. You're gonna have to cut down but it's worth it to be debt free.

That's not even that bad. Treat it like a car payment instead of just paying the minimum and you'll knock it out in a few years.
