This week has been about being an adult; I bought a coat, for example. I also did a very adult thing when I paid this month’s student loan bills. I don’t know if it was because this was the first time I’ve paid them since I turned 30, but they felt a bit weightier than usual. I actually thought about how ridiculous it that I’m paying Sallie ‘nem so much and the fact that most of what I’m paying isn’t going to my principal balance. Matters only got worse when I did a quick tally of my student loans (with interest) and I realized I owed nearly $75,000 in loans. $75,000 bruh. And those loans were secured with my parents’ good credit, I can only imagine what my loans and interest rates would look like if my folks didn’t have decent credit. I lowkey had to stop thinking about it because I started to feel overwhelmed. I checked myself though, God will provide! Maybe that provision will be in the form of a rich benefactor.
I pray that rich benefactor is me, chile. I’m trying to sponsor myself!
