Charniece Whitaker says:

Hearing 40-50k seems like bliss to me. I owe 320k and was in-state the entire time from undergrad to receiving my doctorates. I personally feel like it's a scam. If they're going to charge more money for school then the salaries should reflect the inflation. The cost of school has increased exponentially and the salaries have remained the same. And DON'T let you be a doctor with no experience because then offices will want to pay you thee bare minimum and work you like a dog. It just doesn't make sense… Yeah, from the outside looking in it seems like doctors are living the dream and making all this money but in reality it's not what it seems. I was working 6 days a week burning myself out stressing trying to throw chunks at my student loans just for at the end of 2018 they threw 10k worth of interest on my principal and I couldn't write off my payments towards my student loans because I made too much money. Like I said before ISSA SCAM!

Ognash Xyz says:

straight exteriors says:

Honorable president Trump ,one of the 5 greatest presidents has already cancelled billions in student loan debt,also it is not the taxpayers responsibility to pay for the university education of foreign citizens who sought asylum,so get that straight now,we all have the responsibility to educate our children not the neighbors children,

Frank Roth says:

There is no crisis just a bunch of whiners irresponsible snot nose kids

Frank Roth says:

You can ALWAYS count on omar to be a "victim" she is a waste.

Frank Roth says:

Frank Roth says:

What a snot nose self entitled bratty generation, suck it up cupcake pay your loans off nobody cares about your stupid selfish sob story.

The Yeti says:

Ilhan's definition of incest: "some siblings did something!"

Romain Anderson says:

rimel usb says:

why do you have an alleged criminal on the show!?

INTERSTATE CROWN SUGE says:

My student loan debt is $97,543. Do not go to college!!!!

Manu Che N. says:

This is a very bad idea with good intentions. There are some of us who worked extra work, taking second jobs to repay in full our student loans within 3 to 5 years, way ahead of the scheduled repayment period. I know some could do the same, but preferred to do different. If this proposal does not include a refund for those who paid early, then a moral hazard will be in play. There is a level of irresponsibility no one wants to admit here.

Bee Ready says:

Glad to see racist trolls watching BET ? weak

Johnny Tramain says:

So Omar "marries her brother" to get him into the country illegally, while still "married to him marries another husband, has a few kids and then cheats on him and shacks-up with some political adviser she pay's $230,000 to and the guy's wife files for divorce and child support because they have a child together. This is the woman you're taking advice from?

Admiral Crunch says:

??? get a college degree but can't do a simple budget.
