Both my kids were told they did not have to pay their loans now. They are not accruing interest. They are either saving it, or paying down other debt.
If you gave me “free” money, I would pay it down last as well.
That is great but we both know that’s not even CLOSE to the norm of what people are doing with the money saved :)
We won’t read that posts that say “my kid squandered the money on garbage :)
Which is what I would probably have done :)
Kid working where my wife works is having his wages garnished for non student loan repayment.
