<prompt> Human: Going to take on 100k in student loans when I graduate in 2020. Some family members are telling me to pay it off ASAP, while others are telling me to pay the lowest possible amount every month. Average starting pay for my major is just over 50k... what would be the smartest approach to this 6 figure debt?Edit: Im already a Junior in the program, so not taking the 100k debt isnt an option. I just wanted advice on how to pay it off. Assistant: I mean best thing is to not take out 100K to get a job that pays 50K but beyond that. It depends what the rate on the loans is but assuming its 5-6 you should pay them down very aggressively.Human: Most graduates from my schoolmajor go on to make 100k within 5 years.  <response>: Dont listen to most of these people, you can afford to pay your student loans off with 50kyear, youll just have to live frugally for a while and wait for those pay raises.
