I heard Dave tell someone not to take a paid medical fellowship that paid $50,000 a year until he paid his loan off. The guy was an Internal Medicine doctor making $150,000 and he had $100,000 in student loans. The guy was going to be a cardiologist after the 4 year fellowship and be making $400,000 at current market rates. Seems like bad advise.

But the vast majority of people who graduate from college won't start out with a six figure income, especially if they are not doctors. Saddling them with a six figure debt from the git-go is just asking for trouble. This kid should be so lucky that his parents would be willing to spend up to $50K for his education to begin with.
