Debt Trap: How Student Loans Became a National Catastrophe | Josh Mitchell

pick

This book was really interesting. I was one of those people who graduated with a lot of debt and it was interesting to truly understand how we as a nation got here. I learned a lot and it honestly makes me want to pay off my remaining debt even faster 😂 Seriously though, it was a fascinating read!

I was alternately enraged and dumbfounded by this history of the student loan industry from the 1950s to today. There were clueless politicians, greedy bankers and colleges, and students trying to get ahead. The whole timeline moved from well-intentioned but poorly run to super predatory. A fascinating read, especially if you‘re a borrower! #audiobook

CarolynM Not that long ago I saw a a TV program that explained student debt and the shenanigans around it. It's appalling. I can't believe the lenders were allowed to get away with their behaviour😡 4y

Megabooks @CarolynM right?! It‘s horrible and predatory and not at all what the original intention was. 4y

Cinfhen I have a feeling my blood is going to boil!! 4y

Megabooks @Cinfhen totally!! It‘s just INSANE! 4y

Megabooks @Cinfhen fantastic!! I‘m glad you‘re still going to be able to make the trip. Is M coming too? 😘💜 4y

Cinfhen Nope, I‘m traveling solo😩a little anxious today xx 4y

Megabooks @Cinfhen so I used to get inordinately nervous to do surgery, especially anything new. The best boss I had gave me a Star Wars quote whenever I was nervous - “Do or do not do, there is no try.” You‘ve made the decision to go, so go in confident, positive, and with a mask. You will deal well with any problems IF they arise, but FWIW, I don‘t have any bad feelings about this trip. 💜😘😘 4y

Cinfhen Thanks for the good advice and good juju vibes xxxx things have a way of working out ♥️ 4y

Megabooks @Cinfhen exactly!! 👍🏻 4y

Megabooks @Cinfhen and I don‘t mean to say you‘re inordinately nervous! I always worry about phrasing things incorrectly! Anyway, I do think that you‘ll be fine, but I understand that it‘s not the easier time to air travel. 💜 4y

Cinfhen I totally didn‘t take it that way at all xxx I‘m at the airport all checked in. Airport is PACKED!!! But I‘m masked and keeping my distance 🙃 4y

Megabooks @Cinfhen praying for you to have a fun, safe, healthy trip!! 😘😘 4y

Planning for our future. Great tips. Some of the information in this particular book is outdated, but still a great outline for saving, and strategies to get out of debt. #studentloans #credit #mortgage
