<prompt> Human: Nothing too drastic but I managed to get my student loans to under 10k as of this morning after 10 years of continuous paying. I just wanted to post this to remind myself that theres a light at the end of the tunnel and Im making a mad dash towards the finish line.That is all. Thanks :DEdit: Since some people asked, I had 30k in student loans but not for the reasons that you think. During my 1st two years of undergrad, I was living with my dad. At first, I was paying my tuition from a part time job as a front desk supervisor in downtown Denver. Along the way, my dad got hurt on the job so I had to juggle between working full time, going to school full time, and taking care of my dad while he healed. After two years or so of doing this it was not fun at all D: , my dad finally moved out moved back home with my mom but I was about 30k in the hole since financially I just couldnt keep up. I then started looking at scholarshipsgrants or whatever that helped me pay my tuition. Luckily, I managed to get a full-ride during at the end of my sophomore year and good thing too because I was literally a week away from dropping out of college before I got my scholarship letter. Ive been digging myself out little by litte by moving in with people, cutting expenses, and determining what I really need vs what I really want my toughest challenge.  <response>: I just made my last payment on my car. feelsgoodman
