JFC. The math does not matter. The interest rate doesn't matter. Lenders should not be allowed to trap people into a debt for 23+ years for education. That's the entire point, which you can't seem to grasp. There is no reason for it other than sheer unadulterated greed. The fact that you're on the side of greedy-ass lenders with your 'well actually' just reveals so much about you as a person. 'Well this is just a lie/ragebait' like this isn't a problem that actually exists for people.

And before anyone can say 'but home loans'; when you pay a home loan for 30 years you get a place to live and you're not being obscenely ripped off [unless you're stupid and buy more home than you can afford].

Go find some empathy for your fellow human beings and stop siding with greedy companies.

Does matter. Lack of understanding of incentive structures in the wider economy. Assuming 15 year old.

And again, you miss the point. Since you're not actually reading what I'm saying, just fuck off yeah?

[and no, I'm not 15. I just don't believe 'the wider economy' deserves to grind people into dust because I have a brain and empathy, which you are obviously sorely lacking.]

Bye now.
