    Im Def racking up interest but I’m lowkey banking on student loans being forgiven before the extra interest becomes a problem. Like, I’m gonna assume that at worst I’m adding an extra year of payments, but that’s going to be future me’s problem in like 15 years.

      I totally get the sentiment, but compound interest is a real killer and it’s not like these can be discharged like other debt (in the event that student loan forgiveness doesn’t eventually happen)
