Beating Student Loan Debt

A recent USA Today article cited a survey they conducted among college students. Among the students surveyed, 60% of them planned to borrow to pay for their college. Of that 60% of borrowing students, less than 2/3 of them planned to pay off their student loans in full and on time. This leaves us to wonder, what is the plan for the other 1/3 of those students? Let's be blunt for a moment. There are only three ways to get rid of student loans quickly:


A. Die

B. Become permanently disabled

C. Get focused, intense, follow a proven plan, and make massive payments


Obviously options A and B are off the table, so that leaves us with only option C. Becoming focused, intense, and following a proven plan is what actually then affords you the ability to do the last part - make massive payments. And when we say massive payments, we don't mean paying $500/month when your regular payment is $400/month. We mean paying $1,200 - $1,300 on that $400 monthly bill.


Think about this - if "John" has $40,000 of student loan debt at 5% interest with a 10 year repayment, his normal payment would be $424.26/month. After 10 years, he will have paid almost $11,000 dollars of interest and spent an entire decade of his life beholden to his student loan debt. But, if John chooses to enact option C and pay an extra $800 a month, he will pay off his loans in exactly three years (not ten) and save himself almost $8,000 of interest.
