How many of you with student loans are actually repaying them? (hexbear.net)

Tomorrow not paying back student loans actually means something again. I don't wanna go back to paying again but I'm not sure the ratio of debt strikers to student debt collector mafias is in our favor

My partner and I are hoping against hope that we can stop renting in a couple years if we save and please the algorithm so we get a good social credit score. So we are paying ours, we had gotten it down to the amount they were supposed to forgive but see no point ruining our odds of getting out from under the landleech over an expense we can technically afford. Maybe that's cowardly of us.

Nah you gotta do what's best for you two, I'm just trying to get a read of where people are. I don't plan on ever owning a house, so my concern's more with getting my paycheck garnished.
