Last week, President Obama proposed some relief for graduates with student loans. But for too many, decisions made in college on student loans continue to haunt them. Edited for clarity.
I attended college for a year and one semester, but I haven't been able to finish school. I have tried more than once to go back but inevitably my haphazard work schedule gets in the way. I just couldn't find a happy medium between working at McDonald's (MCD) and going to school.
Now I work at Speedway. I work minimum wage kind of jobs, making $7.40 an hour. I can't afford to live on my own so I have moved in with my parents. I don't have the financial stability to pay off my student loans, which are in forbearance. I'm not sure I can reasonably manage to graduate without falling deeper in debt that I might never come out of.
