“Our son USMC Infantry three tours + in the sand box plus working his student years, the others has paid everything off after two years in the work force.
They declined our assistance”
As a taxpayer (who worked full time AND went to college full time simultaneously, don’t even ask), I’m very upset about this talk of debt forgiveness, but people like your son must be going nuts over it. Other than having to drive on the Dan Ryan in 1970’s Chicago, I didn’t risk my life for my education.
The Dirty Dan can be a thrill ride!
I worked at the University of Chicago, live in the west suburbs. To avoid the Ryan we(car pool) occasionally cut across Englewood and Chicago Lawn. Not for the faint of heart! Also never drive a car of value. Or clean!
A friend was on the Ryan when a local overran the fence, down the embankment and center punched his car!!!
How do you prepare for that?
