Paying Back My Student Loans

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

This week I start paying off my college debts. Even though I knew this day would come, it was scary getting the letter in the mailbox. It speaks of years and years of obligation and financial responsibility. I’m lucky enough to be able to pay the bills, but it is honestly very sobering to see the numbers. I got easy student loans when I started university. There was never any problem when it came to getting approved for loans, and as a result I didn’t think about it much. I think I assumed that if they didn’t think I could pay them back, people wouldn’t lend me money. Needless to say, this idea is a misguided one, and I’m glad I have escaped unharmed so far.
