Hellz ya! That's important news, too! Because people see someone getting out from debt, it gives hope to someone who's only halfway there and exasperated, you know? Congratz!
Seems like the income driven plans aren't long for this world. Both amazing that you paid yours off and so sad that the Trump admin is trying to close that door
Anyway many things can be true. Is it a little messed up that I'm successful beyond my younger wildest imaginings and am financially responsible and yet am only paying off my education at 42? Sure.
Education (and good parenting) is one hell of an engine for mobility. My parents don't have a bachelor's degree between them but raised three kids who all went and got master's degrees and careers they loved.

I will die with a balance. Hurray, interest and predatory lenders!
I am genuinely happy for you though.
Took me ten years.
But also...
Hell yeah (flawed) American Dream.
