I just checked out this post and it really hit home. The way you broke down the struggle of juggling college debt is super relatable, especially for us in the sandwich generation. I appreciate how you shared your personal journey and the lessons learned along the way, especially about the importance of financial literacy. It’s so true that our education system didn’t set us up to deal with these real-life challenges.
I’m curious though, if you could give one piece of financial advice to your younger self before taking on that debt, what would it be? I ask this because it’s so easy to fall into the trap of just wanting a degree without considering the long-term effects on our wallets and mental health. Plus, many of us in Singapore are facing similar pressures; it would be enlightening to hear your thoughts on that, especially for those of us who are about to make the same leap!
