It is difficult to see or feel the value of an education, because only hindsight and blind faith reveals it. For any normal person short on beliefs, feeling anything but regret and burden is special. I don’t like to regret it. Memories are worth buying. Twice a month as I devote half my paycheck to the past I remind myself of why I am able to know what I know and I seek value in those ideas. Maybe debt is a good learning experience preparing us for the auspicious moment of achievemnent - retirement. Debt is an extension of the education process or phase. To fully graduate, one must climb to level zero from the financial pit. I need continuous employment for the next 20 years to fully climb out of said pit. How is that possible? I will make it, but I worry about others maybe not so well equipped. I don’t trust the so-called job creators to correctly assess my value and therefore I worry about my expendability. What is my garuntee? Why did I gamble on my financial stability. Why was I not explained the risk?
