this is what helped me the most

I reneged on a summer offer, and the employer was pissed and contacted my school to complain about me. my school forced me to have two conference calls about how awful what I did was etc but I wouldn’t have my career as it stands if I didn’t make that decision. the job was massively better, the pay ...

As a PSLF truther I wonder if it makes more sense to stay in ten year plan and take the law school for all the money it will give you and actually have your loan balance decline

these schools with excellent lrap programs seem to pay the 10 year amount even if you are on PAYE (at least CLS)

I’m down to 97k from 194k and it’s looking more and more like I’m going to hit that FRB rebate by paying them off before February 2021 (I’ve paid 39k in the last 12 months lol) paying my loans down is apparently my drug of choice. the high only lasts a minute, the costs are excessive, it’s possibly ...

ah right, I forgot that LRAP is (often) based on 10 year repayment despite low PAYE payments

I'm not sure about Nelnet specifically but that's standard practice with the servicers I've used.

that’s always how it was for me as well

but why are you overpaying? I thought you were PAYE/LRAP/PSLF crowd

Does First Republic still have the best interest rates? Someone from FRB mafia please PM me their referral link. I have gotten a lot of helpful advice from lurking these threads over the years and I might finally be ready to refi.

Does anyone know if the old TLS personal finance thread made it over here? I can’t find it and I’m curious about Schwab investing. I was planning on opening a PRCA and going 70/20/10 on a vanguard total index/international/bond but I wasn’t sure if this was right decision or not and what pros/cons ...

I had to do this one time for an in-house interview at an investment advisor. In that instance they gave me a standard ISDA and prime brokerage agreement and had me mark them up with suggested edits. Then they reviewed my edits and had me explain them. To be honest, this firm seemed like a miserable...

That was my interpretation of the the requirement and that article. making this statement while simultaneously being so full of yourself to assume that 99% of applicants, most of who probably weren’t even transfers!, just got it wrong is perfect You're really going to town on that strawman.

Y'all realize that PSLF isn't some black box or lottery, right?

so far it looks worse

at least with the lottery you assume you’re fucked and have no chance

FRB raised interest rates maybe about 18 months ago from the 1.95 base scale, but then they quickly put it back down to the original scale. They dont exactly follow the market. exactly. I refinanced in February 2017 on a higher scale than the 1.95 base and then modified in October 2017 down to the ...
