How can anyone not drown under these conditions yet alone get ahead and you cant even bankrupt your way out of these crazy student loans. I know people who went to more prestigious schools looking at over 100k in student loan debt when they had partial scholarships. The economy is straight up broken in the USA right now for people growing up now.

I mean I get it... But did you friend have a plan with their degree? Or did they go to school without a plan and now can't get a job? Did they research what a biochem and math degree can do for them? Can they move somewhere else and work using their degree?
