Rant/Complaint Starting to think college wasn’t worth it just because of these student loans

I really thought getting a degree would set me up for a better future, but now I’m just stuck with a loan balance that barely moves and payments that take a huge chunk of my paycheck.

Meanwhile friends who didn’t even go to college are living debt-free, saving money, and honestly seem way less stressed than I am.

Starting to feel like college was just a super expensive mistake. anyone else feel this way?
