Managing my debt...

[2+2]

I don't understand this thread even a little.

If managing the debt is not an issue why ask which loan to pay off first? Isn't the one with the highest interest rate the one that charges the most interest? I'm feeling extra dumb.

Work your ass off (1 1/2 or 2 jobs, or one many hour job)for about 4 years or be in debt forever. Live an absloute minimal lifestyle as every dollar you spend now will ultimately cost you many compounded dollars later on. I worked as I went to school and lived very cheaply, without a vehicle, and with just minimum possessions and very cheap housing. I took 6 years to get my 4 year degree and graduated debt free. I recommend it.

Great for you! Many kids from high school never worked going into or while at college. The loan money piles up and the thought that one killer job will erase the debt in no time. The reality is that the entry level jobs for graduates will pay for basic living expences and not much else.
