forgivness of student loans

By Terry Savage on May 13, 2020 | College Savings / Student Loans

Having graduated in 1986 with a large amount of student loans which I have been slowly paying off, did I hear you at one time say that after so many years of paying them I can get them forgiven? Thank you in advance. Thanks for the great advice when I hear you on WGN.

Terry Says

No, but by now you should have paid them off. YOu’ve paid a TON of interest at very high rates. It’s insane that you are still paying!! There IS a program for public service forgiveness, but you wouldn’t qualify. PLEASE figure out a way to pay off these loans now.
