Strange Brew by John Deering for August 22, 2019

Now you can retire.

Now you can start working on the mortgage.

Now you can get married and start a family.

Now that his student loan is paid off, he can start saving money for his retirement…

Every month as I was writing the check for my student loan, I would think to myself, “I don’t feel smarter”.

Quick check our credit score.

Why can’t I find this funny?

By the time your student loans are paid off, everything you learned as a student has changed.

Only in America.

Great! Maybe now he can concentrate on his Mortgage payments.

Looks like Cagney down there!

Between the GI Bill and working 40 hours a week, night shift, I graduated without any student debt.

Betsy De Vos was lobbied by the companies who give student loans…student loans will never go away, as she walks away with her bribe money…..

If I hear back positive about that job offer it’ll be a great week.

Priorities.. that bill is the last one to be paid and then you die.

An oldie but a goodie.

Not a joke. 25% of student loans with a balance belong to seniors. Just paid mine off a few years ago at 67

My student loan was paid off in seven years. I graduated in 1974. My loan was for $2500 and included books. I went to Rutgers. But I had free room and board because I commuted to school.

Your government at work.

My student loans are so burdensome that I’ve already resigned myself to having them until I die. I’m just happy they die when I die so my son doesn’t have to be saddled with my debt and his own (when he gets old enough to get his own student loans). Nothing else I can do. I focus on keeping a roof over our heads, food in our mouths, clothes on our backs. Student loans come last.
