You mentioned scholarships, which reminded me of my own school financing, During my night school days I did borrow some money for classes but mostly paid out of pocket as I went. At the time I graduated I owed only $4,100.00. Can you imagine that now, only $4.1k in loans? It's absolutely insane what an education costs these days.
Oh, don't get me started on education costs. It is truly absurd how expensive it is. Several of my friends went to big state colleges and exited with $60k-$100k in debt. They were able to get it paid off, but it's just insane that we are getting to the point where there is a genuine mathematical discussion of "is this even worth it anymore?"
