WILKES-BARRE, PA—Saying that his great grandparents could have never even dreamed of squandering such a fortune, recent college graduate Eric Singer told reporters Monday that he is the first person in his family to throw away $160,000.
“This level of debt was just out of reach for my father and grandfather, which makes my wasting so much money all the more meaningful,” said Singer, noting that his mother only flushed $12,000 down the toilet during her time in school. “It’s an honor to be the first in my family to experience blowing hundreds of dollars on textbooks, or meeting with financial aid officers to fill out the paperwork locking me into a lifetime of crippling interest rates.
I can think of one more.
😂😂😂
The real headline should be - “ 1st Person in family to over pay 160k for a 500 dollar education that will only to benefit greedy investors and loan serving companies ! “
They'll be sorry when that degree in VCR repair pays out.

That Communications degree will pay off sooner than you think
I spent 130k to learn to fly helicopters at a civilian flight school. Then after working with the guys who learned to fly in Nam, I found out that most helicopter pilots are racist as shit
This isn’t about me, right?
What do you expect? That “mans” eyes are full of fear
To be totally 'Free and Faire' it was only $60,000 with $100,000 in interest.

I've probably wasted that much over the years total but it kinda gave me a college degree so it worked out.
First world problems...
MattWalshBlog The grad is smarter than you realize—$160k was a bargain, compared to other universities.
MattWalshBlog It's weird Matt retweeted a photo of himself when it's blatantly obvious he has definitely never been educated in any legitimate capacity.
MattWalshBlog ONION = past its expiration date - 1/1/2006
MattWalshBlog I’d make fun if I hadn’t wasted 75k myself
MattWalshBlog Beauty in the eyes of the beholder. When the same student becomes a doctor, lawyer, scientist etc and rakes in millions, the same voices will say, great return on investment. Some college fees are high but many professions pay disproportionately too.
MattWalshBlog gotta keep em' stupid!
🤣🤣
hbryant42 I feel ya
But don’t worry, he can go on an Income-based Repayment (IBR) plan. Of course, any unpaid interest will be capitalized so in one year he will only pay $1,200 and owe only &210,000.
What college still costs just 40 grand a year lol
😢

Should be more like $220,000. Brutal tuition inflation since this came out in 2014.
