Anyone know the rate of fed loans? I agree with Static that it should, at worst, the Fed Funds rate (discount rate). That's a quarter point today. A year ago it was 2.5%. So it's dirt cheap.0 -

I was a lucky bastard...only child of upper-middle class (non-materialistic) parents. I actually had the college fund that some kids grow up thinking they have. My wife, not so much. Grew up in poverty. I was taken aback by her loans, which to me it seemed like may as well have been market rate. The only advantage (other than the fact that no bank would have loaned her family money) over a bank was that she didn't have to start paying until after graduation from grad school. Fifteen years later, we wrote the biggest check of our lives to pay it off because the long-run savings was so immense.We made it work because 1) I had no student debt, 2) we both have professional masters degrees (nothing hugely lucrative, but no philosophy-major struggles) and 3) we have no kids and are not big spenders. But four-year-only grads on average don't make a lot of money and the cost of it all is ridiculous. I think there's a lot of value to the experience but if you grow up without a lot of money, you're really forced into being utilitarian about it and not going in if you don't know exactly what you're going to do with it.At the same time, it's good that we're backing off on idealizing the four-year experience. We needed more balance and a more clear delineation of post-secondary options (and less villification of some). But I hope it all (the cost, the over-compensation on lionizing college, conservative policy) doesn't all end up keeping low-income people from being able to go the traditional college route if that's what suits them.Post edited by OnWis97 on1995 Milwaukee 1998 Alpine, Alpine 2003 Albany, Boston, Boston, Boston 2004 Boston, Boston 2006 Hartford, St. Paul (Petty), St. Paul (Petty) 2011 Alpine, Alpine

I actually had a prof that assigned his book as the main text one time. And I had an the 4 edition when the current one was 5th. After the first paper he told me he was not going to accept any more assignments unless I referenced the current edition.
The only difference was a few pictures changed and some formatting. I wanted to reply “well if your book from last year is so wrong why would I trust this one?” But I didnt.0 -

People pick one 90 second bit to piss around about. Too funny.
I think her piece seems on brand, for her.
Also....I didn't watch this infomercial as it happened the past few nights. Did anyone else?
No need.
Won't watch the other infomercial next week, either.
(Although the unintentional comedy scale could be high for the speeches from both grandpa's. Will likely watch those day after )
