haha~
coyote, that's cheating!!
fitftw, joining the military is a fine choice for people who are interested in that type of option but I'm sure many people here would be either unfit to join (history of depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts - or physically unable to join; like me) or just not interested in it.
It's a good suggestion though. I have known plenty of people to do just that in order to either get them through school-- or to pay off their initial loans from some other sort of schooling.
I've had some friends who joined overseas teaching programs in Asia in order to pay off their loans as well. If teaching is your profession and you'd like to see some of the world, It seems like a good idea.
Or you could win the lottery! wee!
My loan payments have been on hold for 4 years... and magically, 3grand worth has disappeared into thin air! Who paid that for me?! It wasn't me! XD
