I didn't take out any student loans. I was on a full ride scholarship funded by my parents. (It was a pretty competitive scholarship. They only gave it out to one other person, my brother.)

Maybe like $3000 total in student loans by the time I flunked out. For most of my educational career (I use that term loosely) I was on the "Old Man Meanie" scholarship plan in with Old Man Meanie covered tuition and I was responsible for everything else. Old Man Meanie got tired of subsidizing 0.0 GPAs and so eventually he cut me off. I used student loans the last two semesters I spent flunking out of the U. Paid them off shortly afterwards.

My parents bought me a cheap car, when as a RM, I told them if they ever wanted grandkids, they would need to do this.

I was fortunate to not have had any school loan debts.

I am loathe to give exact figures. It is south of my home mortgage, and we will leave it at that.
It is more than double the highest option on the poll. Columbia+NYC+two kids is very expensive. We are gradually whittling away. This is why my "rich guy" shtick is a complete farce. |
