student loannnnnnns

just realized i am paying ~20% of my monthly income to student loans, and ~25% to rent. ~5% to savings (at .01% interest, bleh).

In summary: never getting ahead ever.

Although, if I keep paying at this rate (as in these same dollar amounts, not percentages), I will be done with Sallie Mae in about 8 years, and done with my other provider in about 11 so … that’s a imaginable amount of time, right? it’s better than it was a few years ago when i wouldn’t be done with any loans until about 30 years from now.
