These 2.8 million over 60 with student loan debt have to be some of the most stupid people in the whole US if not the world. They probably work at McDonalds too.

McDonald’s pays $2500 a year toward tuition if one works 15 hours a week. Community college is about $4500 a year.

I think your average McDonald’s worker is a lot smarter than these people.

I’m one of those “stupid people” you are referring to. My work paid for some of my bachelors degree, but I had to take loans to finish. For my MBA, I am on the 5 year plan where my company will pay the entire nut. Taking the loan was my only chance to receive my degree.

As far as working at McDonalds, when I got my Bachelors, my next job paid $35k more a year and my MBA will add another $25k. I’m 59 years old and working in IT. Was ore than worth it.
