Reply #5: Student Loans: Or How I learned Big Corporate America sucks...

[hunter]

... and sucks and sucks the life out of us all.

Our most amusing experience was when a supposed branch of the same bank my wife got her student loan from put a five business day hold on their own flippin' check and we had to get an emergency loan from the school to buy food until it cleared.

Worse stuff than that happened too, much worse. It was a bright day when we paid off those blood sucking ticks. And what value did they add to their "service?" What were we paying them for? To harass us when things were not going well in our lives? Well, thanks a lot!

The Student Loan people and the Health Insurance people taught me life's too short to worry about money.
