    Why should we be taxed on 100% of the forgiven loan when Navient was sued for driving our school loans up through wrongful steering ...among other things???

    It’s not as though those who are getting forgiveness aren’t paying taxes TOO! I think it’s ridiculous to complain about this if you didn’t complain about wealthy members of Congress actors, and corporations got PPP loans forgiven. If you didn’t complain when the auto industry, airline industry, mortgage industry and banking industry were bailed out. I don’t own a plane, bank or a house but my taxes went towards that. Damn any complaints about lower and middle class people FINALLY getting a break on something. Furthermore, you can STILL go to school and get your loans forgiven when your time comes if you want. Nobody’s stopping you. Stop hating!!

      FACTS!! I still don't understand why there isn't a big protest specifically for student loan forgiveness. This Palestine stuff is not getting it done. I know that protests are supposed to be all encompassing but all people are really walking away from us Palestine matters when they are trying to say the establishment as is needs to reflect the wants and desires of the people and that includes student loans but they are using the Palestine issue as a banner and the Palestine issue is all people are walking away with. Very annoying.

      Absolutely true. It's not as if the forgiven student loan enriches you. All it does is remove a burden.

    Ooh, Queen Stacey coming through with the mindset GOLD! Yesssss. Thank you for including her wisdom. 💖 I think the hardest part for me right now is all the UNCERTAINTY around my student loan forgiveness (I have that old-school ICR/IBR loan that entered repayment in 1999... and they have my records wrong so I didn't clear the forgiveness mark in May as scheduled).
    My nervous system is all kinds of jacked up over the waiting game (and, yeah, spending hundreds per month on loans we had budgeted to be done with already). *sigh* Hanging in there though. Staying positive. Thanks for another great vid! 🏆

    Oh my gosh, those student loans are a beast. Even making payments every month, the accruing interest that capitalizes makes it impossible to actually pay off. Debt is so stressful, and it also ruins relationships 💁

    I borrowed $65k in the 1990s. I have paid $130k to date. I still owe $65k!!! These loans have been in repayment for more than 25 years. They were originally stafford loans, both subsidized and unsubsidized, that I consolidated during the pandemic, so they are now federally held. Will they be forgiven? Or where is the federal lawsuit at? Thank you fro the work you do.

    Hi sir! new subscriber here, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain the madness that is student loans. I just subscribed to your newsletter also. Your calm energy helps so much because student loans really do drive us crazy!

    When I paid off the much smaller of my two federal student loans back in 2022, my credit score did go down for a bit after the final payoff was reported to the credit bureaus. The credit score did go up again after about half a year.

    Thank goodness we’ve paid off our modest homes and pay cash cars. Student loans only debt I carry and I doubt they’ll be forgiven anytime soon way too many changes either IDR and save plan. If ever forgiven we’d use payments to compound savings and investing

    How long does it take for the credit reporting agencies to take the student loan off of the credit report? My loan was forgiven but its still there several months later.

    • @leslielewis40
      @leslielewis40 4 месяца назад

      You can dispute the tradeline and provide proof that there’s a zero balance. They’ll take it off. However, like he said… it will likely drop your score… at least temporarily.

    10k is like a 5 percent discount of what we’ve paid. Is that really a big deal?

    I recently consolidated to the department of education with Aidvantage coming from AES. Loan was paid in full to AES 7/8/24 with repayment starting that same day with Aidvantage under the SAVE plan. Am I eligible to be on the New IBR(2014) with 20 year forgiveness vs SAVE with all its problems? Or would I be placed on old IBR with 25 year forgiveness timeline? I may be three payments short on the adjustment.
