    Student loans, even when used properly, are essentially designed to keep you in debt

    Absolutely. It’s the new indentured servitude. Conversely, I believe education should be free or very low cost as it is a betterment to society.

    I’m also with you on CC. Fortunately I do well enough, but I live within my means and pay it off each month. I put things off I cannot afford until I’ve saved enough for it. Or I just do without. If they had layaway, I’d do that since I grew up with that sort of thing.
