I paid off my student loans for my RN and bachelor's degree though it was a sacrifice at the time.

My oldest daughter is paying off her Master's degree and her husband, his PhD. They have been paying on their respective student loans the whole 10-years that they have been married and there is no end in sight.

They both teach at the university level and are raising 4-children.

Neither of them begrudge the repayment but the interest on the loans is ridiculous and does greatly impact their ability to save for their own children's future education.

I have no answers for the problem of student loan debt but feel it is a critical problem for all of us.
