Just like when you're broke and your car gets towed, you FIND money to get it out of the impound lot. That said, you prob should have gone to the U and gotten a job in finance... then you really would be traveling the world to warm destinations.... oh, wait- you ARE going to travel the world to warm destinations!! Ha, nevermind. Looks like you're in a good spot, U education/finance job or not!! Now whether this has implications for your writing, I dunno... Sidenote, make sure to get those receipts for the donations to the po'. Write that shit off come April 15! And INVEST your 401k already!! And.... oh hell, artsy people and balance sheets are like oil and water- or so it seems. Listen here: even if you had no student debt, money would FIND places to go.

Silly poor people! Always giving! Also, before people start telling me to consolidate my loans already or get a better-paying job, I should clarify that it's more like a third of my income, not half. But seriously, why am I shredding ACLU requests and granting Bard the favor? I need to take another look at my priorities. I can live in a world without a new science building, but I guess time will tell if I can live without some of those civil liberties.

My highschool is super rich. They paid to send me to Japan. I owe them big. And apparently, it's mostly the poor alumni that donate. Go figure.

I donate to rich my highschool because they gave me lots of aid when I went there, but Bard can kiss my poor ass. A couple years ago Bard got me on the phone and I promised I'd write a $10 check, and then I got a letter in the mail 3x a year after that asking for their $10. So they pretty much spent what I owed them on postage, ha ha. Sigh. Yeah I’m still paying those loans and will be forever.
