Think I’ll feel even better about it once the student loan organization posts the payment, but due in part to a sudden reckoning by family re: support to date and capacities today, I was able to pay off the last bit of my loans without screwing up my immediate need finances.
10 years in the making, lol. Just kinda feel like shouting this into the void, despite faithfully making the payments it still never really felt like this day would ever come.
BA in the same! Also not using my degree in any way for my job, but I do appreciate a lot of soft skills I picked up, the ability to appreciate critical analysis from other points of view, and at least giving me a taste of what a potential career as an editor would be like. Not sure it was worth the price tag I paid, but it was at least worth something.
I agree, it was time well spent in my case as well. The price tag is just a mite heavy for that experience, compared to other paths with better career options.
But it’s definitely enriching in its own right.
