Save one: If this site doesn't worry you, your priorities may need realigning.

Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

Is that for real?
I find it hard to believe that those number all increase at the same time and frequency, which leads me to believe its a bogus website.

As I understand it, the numbers are calculated as a formula based on time, last calculated value, and rate of increase, so the numbers are only estimates - potentially off by a few percent.
Which really doesn't matter because the exact actual numbers are still mind bogglingly large.If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

No need to make it political - and pure folly to go there and only blame one party. Both the major parties have made the mess we're in now.
