Also to consider about that debt is the time in your life that you are giving up. College is a lot of work and when you are in it you can do very little else except in the summers. 18-22 to get a bachelors degree and perhaps a decade of work to pay off your loans. That means you'll be 30 before you are free to do what you want.
right and the few degrees such a doctor lawyer and engineer are pursued simply for the sake of social prestige and money and take along time and rarely are obtained for the sake of social welfare
