I went back to school 3 years ago ( 2+ years to go ), got married then had my first baby and bought a new house. I think it goes without saying that I am spending more than I earn, but that is what student loans are for.

While I do think I could be managing my money better, in the long term I have no serious worries. Even with mortgage payments, I am taking far less in student loans out this year and if all goes well I should be able to start pumping money into RRSP and other investments before the school year is done.
