If she gets a part time job and she’s able to bring in an extra $1k a month, she can drop the time to 5.5 years. Still very long, but she would only be 31-32 once she’s done saving up the money.

Thank you for talking about this- The reason (most likely) she has this much debt is she _chose_ to go to an out of state school that collected out of state tuition rather than waiting a year to be accepted into an instate school.

It would be nice to do a program where all those who were denied forgiveness and how that is a problem now. I keep telling them this can be instead of a dream, a nightmare!!!! and sadly, too many schools do not allow students to 'put on hold a year'.

I love how she asks after the fact how to best put herself in a better financial space.

This solution is anti-reality. Either you have stellar grades and get a full ride, or your parents actually saved up a college fund, or you get loans. That's it! No one "pays their way" through school anymore, and if anything its often not worth it if it forces you to take even one additional semester just to be able to keep a job.

Nothing unique about it.

They have no idea what it takes/costs to be in a professional school. They can't give her actual advice on this topic.

Bruh, drop out after 200k in debt with no degree? That is insane, yeah she needs to get a job to at least pay her lifestyle while going to school, but dropping out to "save" is insane, her interest payments alone would stop her from saving anything right now.

I lost over $80k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Charlotte Miller.

Professional school isn’t for everyone. Like a pro athlete, they bank on their future earnings potential by investing in building their skill to the best possible. They cannot distract themselves with work, but instead dedicate their time to training/rest/nutrition. I cannot speak for vet school but for doctors in medical school, working can be detrimental to skill development. It’s super competitive to get in and super competitive to become a specialist. Starting salaries range from 220k-500k starting depending the type of doctor you become.

Although I generally agree with Ramsey’s teachings on avoiding student loan debt, vet programs are a whole different beast.

Holy woof!!!

In a high-level educational doctoral program, one can’t simply wait to pay for the next semester. Typically, these programs last for x amount of years and is structured that you must complete the entire program without skipping any classes/ semesters. To say she should just wait until she can pay for her next semester is a bit ludicrous and out-of-touch.

In a few years she's going to be frustrated with the amount of loans she's paying and complain she's delaying building a family, buying a home, etc.

We NEED veterinarians same as we NEED doctors, etc. So forget the student loan debt for a second, why don't people try and figure out how to become a veterinarian or doctor on the least cost possible. It sounds like most people throw caution to the wind and totally ignore how to keep the cost of education as low as it can be.

By the way caller i hope you read this. My best friend is a veterinarian. After vet school you have to apprentice with a seasoned veterinarian for 5 years. These companies take advantage of you being new and only pay 30-40 k a year. So you are screwed either way you go. The interest will go up while you work. This is one reason why the suicide rate among vets are so high.

Ramsey folks: "I'm going to take a break from school, work, and stack up cash to continue my education." It's almost as if Ramsey folks have no clue about some of these professional programs. Most vet schools are highly competitive to get into and if you "take a break", you lose your spot and you may or may not get back in. At that point, you're $250,000 in debt, which is now due with interest, and no vet job, and no prospect of getting a vet job. Also, you are not going to work for a couple of years and save up enough money to get you through to the end of vet school. No, this young lady painted herself into a corner and the only realistic option is to buckle down, limit her expenditures as much as possible, work part time as much as possible, and get to the commencement ceremony. And then, she has to buckle down and get these loans paid off. A bad decision on her part should not be compounded by bad Ramsey advice.

Usually love Ramsey for their advice, but it’s so situational. The girl is already halfway there, she should finish it up. But I do agree to try and limit the debt accrual in any way she can. My wife is a vet, and while in school she had no extra time to meaningfully earn an income. She’s been currently working for a nonprofit at market rate in our area, so for us it’s been the best of both worlds. 2 more years and the balance will be “forgiven”, but plans to stay at the nonprofit she’s at due to her love of helping the community she works in.

Nobody should call Ramsey to ask about PSLF, because the Ramsey personalities at this point are willfully ignorant about the program and how it works. They give terrible advice because the only really want people to have no debt at all. Well, you can't become a vet without student loans unless you're a millionaire already. You need the loans (LOL at working while being in vet school), and PSLF is a perfectly viable strategy, but the Ramsey personalities get it wrong Every. Single. Time. George just said, "You do the nonprofit route, you're on a track, with interest, to maybe pay this off in 15 or 20 years." No dude, that's not at all how PSLF works. You make ten years of payments (at a percentage of your income, with interest not adding to the principle if you're in the SAVE repayment plan) in a public service job, and then it gets forgiven. The program works. Ramsey is so stuck in the past reality of the program--when it was very broken and very difficult to navigate--and they refuse to learn about the current realities. PSLF is largely fixed and running decently smoothly. People are moving through the program pretty easily (I'm in it myself) and approval rates have jumped significantly. I've had no less than six friends make their 120th payment and get their loans forgiven this year alone. It is working. So this caller should consider that a viable option. I plugged her numbers into a SAVE plan calculator, and her payment on $400,000 in loans with a $100,000 salary would be around $560 a month. Very do-able. If she gets into working for a nonprofit or the government, she can make that monthly payment and still have plenty left over to save for retirement, pay her bills, etc. But that flies in the face of the Ramsey method, which is built for people who need the simplest advice possible of they drive themselves off a financial cliff. If the caller's got an ounce of financial discipline, she can pull this off using PSLF no problem. My friends who used PSLF are not debt-free and have built very good retirement accounts over those ten years as well.
