This couple owes $900,000 in student loan debt. Yes, $900,000

Here’s what you need to know.Cynthia Marie Rodgers, 59, graduated from Capital Law School and intended to become a lawyer in Ohio. As part of her bar admission, she was required to pass a character and fitness review, which is typical for aspiring lawyers to ensure they have good character to practice law.that her bar admission be denied. The reason? The Court said Rodgers did not have the requisite character or fitness to practice law.

Rodgers told the Court she is disabled and only can work part time. She is enrolled in an income-driven repayment plan, which enables her pay a monthly student loan payment based on her discretionary income. Rodgers told the Court that she expects that her student loans will either be forgiven or she will pay for the remainder of her life.

Not exactly. Naturally, most recent law school graduates have student loan debt when they apply for bar admission. If student loans would disqualify a prospective lawyer, then many new law school graduates would not become members of a state bar. That said, fitness and moral character are important components for bar admission.

They are really on the edge, now that Yang dropped out!

Sounds like they made some poor choices.

D*m

Some people make better decisions than others. People making poor decisions need to deal with the consequences.

Insane

I worked in Financial Aid for 17 years. I know from experience that a great deal of student loan debt pays for cars, vacations and other unnecessary expenses. Even debt consolidation.

America!

MyFault

That’s almost enough to buy a math textbook at the bookstore

Idiots.

In total....so $900,000 divided by two is $450,000. Sounds like both of them have high degrees

That’s alot, they shouldn’t have taken so much, can they not add ? Hope that money bought them a good education which afforded them an equally good job.

No wonder American banks are thriving 🤔

I'm guessing it wasn't on accounting / economics or finance degrees. If so, worthy of refund.

LOL they deserve everything they get.

I’d like to see how much $ was spent on, no. Education related travel, housing,gifts & other non educational uses. I’d put that amount in “over half” range.

Couple Takes Weekend Trip Outside City To Get Away From All The Arts And CultureELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL—Looking forward to a couple days devoid of any kind of mental stimulation, local couple Owen Lefeld and Emma Douglas set off on a weekend trip outside the city Friday to get away from all the arts and culture. “It can feel so suffocating being surrounded by all these world-class museums and parks all the time, so it helps to occasionally take a little trip out to the suburbs,” said Lefeld, 34, explaining that the excursion would allow the two of them to escape the relentlessness of human intellectual achievement. “As soon as I see that first strip mall, I just feel myself start to unwind. It’s nice to be somewhere where there’s just one diner with mediocre sandwiches, and not have to deal with the seemingly endless array of unique and enticing cuisine options from around the world that comes with living in the city. It’s only a short trip, but it will be nice to soak up the monotony while we can.” Lefeld added that the couple had left at rush hour to ensure they would hit as much traffic as possible on their journey. falls church on the map!!
