This summer's sacrifice could mean that your winter semester loan can be a lot smaller.
I went for the max loan every year (8 grand at the time) when I was in school and while I don't regret it (it was a lot of fun), I am not fond of the monthly payments I have to make.
Tomorrow is the first of the month and that means loan-payment day for me. I'll be writing a check to cover a pair of sunglasses I bought and a bender I went on in 1998.

No,its not all bad.
2.5 paycheques will do, but that still means slowing down on summer spending. Problem is, i wanted to pay with student loans and have saved money to live off. I guess 1 semester paid and live off loans is probably the same but still...
Damn visa bill is crazy
