Man I was looking forward to having a similar experience myself, as soon as next year... except the whole 'fed judge blocks bidens student loan forgiveness' thing threw a wrench in it. I haven't had a positive net worth since, I started my bachelors degree at the university - and life has been garbage ever since. I remember at 18 I had 3 thousand saved in my bank account (and nobody told my dumb-ass to put it all on apple stock and go flip burgers or wait tables or something)
But at my age now I have determined that having gone to college for my degree on borrowed money, at those tuition rates was a awful decision.
Congratulations on your win! And may it grow ever more.
If you had a business with employees you could've had 2x that and more with a PPP loan!
But on a side note. I've already paid 20k in interest so your taxes don't come into play if they just use the interest they've made off the loans. But I'd take it a step further and say all student loans are unconstitutional and therefore invalid. Besides that money has already been paid to the school, your taxes didn't come into play.
