Even though I made a mistake when I took out my student loans, people should know it's more nuanced than that. I stupidly assumed I would make enough after graduation to pay off my student loans quickly. It's no secret that state schools get a bad rap and are often looked down on. I had one guidance counselor who told me someone with my grades should aim higher than a state school. I'm now paying for the mistakes and will struggle to pay back my student loans for the next decade.

Since I focused on saving and had the extra money without my loan repayments, I've been able to get close. Why didn't I save money specifically for my loans during the pause? I don't have any answers yet, but the scary reality is I'm going to have to put my dreams on hold.
