Student loan debt in the United States has topped $1.41 trillion, according to the Federal Reserve. That boils down to around $32,000 per student borrower. (For more information and student loan statistics, go to: https://www.newyorkfed.org/microeconomics/hhdc.html) That’s a pretty deep hole for a college graduate to dig out of, considering an average college graduate earns just over $40,000. All this digging can put out of reach or seriously delay many aspects of the American dream.
Homeownership, for many grads, is a distant fantasy. It may even be difficult to get a good rate on a car loan. Others are not able to further their education, and their fortunes, by going to grad school. And saving for retirement is seriously delayed for many borrowers.
