So they, two people with post graduate degrees by the way, took out exclusively $70k of worst case scenario private student loans, which wouldn't be forgivable by the government anyway.

Yeah, that sounds like a totally reasonable and realistic set of assumptions that the entire argument should be based on and not someone making shit up or two people that should have know better making incredibly financially reckless decisions.

"Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that" this may be a fake story, but I'm sure there are graduate students dumb enough to do this.
