I was pre-covid, but rn I can’t conceive of a world where I’m actually about to cut these vampires a check

    i paid mine off so easily!

    1. dad died
    2. grandpa died so me and sibling got my dads share of his inheritance

    all you need is a white guy born in the 1930s who worked the same desk job for his whole life. so easy! i think it was like $10k i paid off, after having made payments for a while. and that was after my mom paid for some of my college with my dads inheritance/insurance money.

    take a guess what paid for my house downpayment too? you guessed it! although funnily enough my grandpa also paid for my parents first house.

    all student loans should have 0% interest, but then how would the stonk lines go up?

    and yea, i often ponder how much of my current life and security was paid for with generational wealth and death. people talk about life changing amounts of money, mine was like $40k at most. It doesnt take much.
