When I left college in 1993 I had $35,000 in student loans (approx the same inflation adjusted number as $70k in the current year). I paid twice the minimum, shared an apartment, lived frugally, had no car, and paid them off in 5 years. I also bought a house. Why did you fail?https://twitter.com/lacymjohnson/status/1204963358266593280 …

2009 had high unemployment.she could have missed some wages for a few months thatakes a big difference long term (debt accrue and you need more debt to eat and live under a roof those months). Still ofc she is responsible for her failure given that the economy has been very good

if you miss wages, you make up for it by working more later my business cratered in 2008 and I lost everything - ended up declaring bankruptcy in 2014. I've worked two jobs since then, upgraded from my old house to a massive farm, and paid it off in full at the age of 47.

@ScottAdamsSays has been playing the "economist or artist" game. I think most of us do this naturally.
