Then get a job as a chef and pay your loan back.
If you can’t, then perhaps you should kick yourself for not listening to your dad who was helping you, you idiot.
I completely agree with you. Thanks to the idiot counselors at their high school, one of my children decided to be either a rock star or an actor and another pinned her hopes on being a singer. As parents, we suggested—no, DEMANDED, that they first continue to make good grades and find a way to make a living THAT WOULD SUPPORT THE LIFESTYLE THEY WANTED. After that, they were welcome to sing, dance, or whatever was decent.
Today, both are engineers with zero student loan debt. We hated to urge them to postpone their “superstar” dreams, however impractical, but now they are free and equipped to live life as they wish.
