This... makes me feel better. I have a relatively smaller loan (6,500, which, I must admit, is already so large as to not be "real" to me), and an actionable plan to reduce and then entirely pay it off. It's not hard for me to find a job in the restaurant industry here, and my biggest concern is paying rent, yet I have a wonderful safety net (I can always find a bed in the house I grew up). I don't feel as entirely fucked as lots of people my age.
