CNN assoc. producer pays off student loans in 2 yrs by eating expired food, going hungry, no heat

6. I agree....this article is bullshit

I'm a high school senior who is about to go to college for law. Fortunately, my family has saved up a little bit of money to help me pay for college, but I am still looking at the prospect of paying A LOT in loans back - certainly much more than the CNN producer's $26,000.


Living life in a frugal way and doing everything you can to save money is one thing, but starving yourself and going without heat!?!? Come on!!!

I have to laugh when I see college kids complaining about money, as they are wearing a jacket from The North Face which costs more than my entire outfit!
