<prompt> Human: I have 17,000 in federal loans at about 7 interest. I have 1 month net salary in savings.I take home 2,000 a month after Everything. No other commitments.How much should I devote to my savings and loan each month? Thanks in advance!  <response>: 2000 after your expenses? Id pay the loans as quickly as possible after building up an emergency fund. If you have a 401k match, at least contribute enough to get the full company match as its 100 return.
