an extra thought (for free)
Up until this year, I've kept my list of regrets to a bare minimum and just this past week, after I got an email notice instructing me that my first payment due on all my college loans (for both bachelor and masters degrees) for the mere price of: $1,700.00/month.
I bought into the idea, over ten years ago, that earning an education would help me transcend my life of poverty. If anything, even if I WAS lucky enough to find a job or career earning at least $5K a month, I'd still be poor, after paying a monthly loan payment - with only enough left over for bare, basic living expenses.
Lesson Numero Uno 1 & my only Regret of the Century (so far)
(a lesson I won't forget, ever - literally).
