I did not work, but had no loans. My parents never made more than $20,000 per year, could never have afforded to send my brother and I to college. But my grandmother, who worked cleaning houses for a living, bought savings bonds which paid our way through Pitt. I did have loans for law school as did xshub, but we each paid those off promptly. My friend Paula, the doctor, had no loans bc she did the National Health program, worked off her indebtedness for several years in inner-city Philadelphia.

See, this is the difference between us and these spoiled ungrateful brats-we had to work, or if we borrowed we paid back promptly, our families weren’t well enough off to send us and our siblings to college entirely, etc, etc. and that was the norm for most of us then. These adult brats lack gratitude because they have never had to work for anything, and they don’t even think they should pay their loans back.
