      bad advice in this special case, he has a lot of potential because of the high flow of money. the only way togo would be pay the minimum
      use as much as he can to invest. quickly he gonna turn the 1mil student loan into 1 mil investment loan that then could be furter investet with higher rates of payback.
      that would also secure him a bit better since most of his income comes from a job he could loose at any moment. any momeny payback then is just lost and the debt is crushing him anyway. better have assets that ensure payback

      It just isn’t true. In order to accept the loan, the system makes you watch a demonstration on how interest works and how long it can take and how much more you pay the principal. You have to answer quiz questions correctly demonstrating understanding before you are given the page where you sign. They know going into it and they have magical thinking the someone else with pay it. He was smart enough to graduate from dental school, so he was smart enough to know what $1M is. Fortunately, he’ll make a million in take-home in about 6 years. The worst thing is that his finance is working without income or a retirement savings plan so he has more to put on his debt.

      There's a lot missing from his story, though. I haven't priced orthodontic schools, but there is no way he racked all of that up in one straight run. He probably went to 4 or 5 schools, tried 2 or 3 majors before settling on orthodontics. He also put living expenses on it.

    I owed 440k after dental school - no residency. My payment was 4500 a month for 25 years. I wasted 3 years trying to”income based” and trying to even mentally process the debt amount. Then I moved to rural area and lived on my husbands 60 k income and put my yearly 180k ( after tax) income all into the debt. And after 2 years i began to breathe a little. I still owe 60k though haha. My body aches from overworking past 7 years and i think i was suicidal every other month but i made it. Nobody understands this kind of debt - student loans go to grave with you and no bankruptcy. DONT GET INTO THIS KINDA DEBT. Being a doctor is not worth it because you will handle doctor level stress with NO gratification whatsoever.

      @@Trewq79 220k is nothing! Idunno if you are a new grad but can do that in a year or two . Don’t listen to other ppl saying invest in your CE and office and pay off slow while maximizing. Yes, a good running practice will give you wealth but it takes YEARS to get there while ur interest doubles and triples. You can do all that more effectively AFTER you paid off your debt.

    This is an oldie but a good one. A lesson for students: be prudent about what you are borrowing, and pay the interest along the way to keep the balances from growing. My kids have loans and are still in school. I pay just the interest, and more when i can. We've already paid a few off. Your loan servicer shows you how much interest has accumulated and you can calculate it each month. At least pay that. Hopefully this guy made some progress during the COVID pause.

      Christopher Homer Dental school can cost up to half a million dollars in tuition, plus living expenses. Also need to take into consideration undergraduate and a possible master’s tuition and living expenses. All that interest could be accruing while in dental school I think? Also not sure if the dental residences have fees. It does make sense when you consider all of this because dental schools are not cheap in the slightest. They cost more than medical schools and if you only get into one dental school and it happens to be one of the highest in tuition, you have to go there. It looks really bad to apply to dental school a second time if you got in somewhere else but turned them down, you could jeopardize your chances of getting into a school and then would have all that debt with not a high enough salary to repay it.

    I remember graduating with $105k student loan as a Pharm.D back 10 years ago… oh boy the excitement of getting your schooling done quickly replaced by the anxiety of paying this 105k loan. At least I got it paid off in 1.5 years working 50 hours a week earning 180k-200k a year. A million student loan debt ? Oh my god I would have died.

    This must be a record for the student debt on Dave Ramsey Show.
