Did
you know that the average
student loan balance
is $24,803? Student debt is taking a heavy toll on borrowers, according
to an American Institute of CPAs survey,
which found that 75% of respondents or their children
had made personal
or financial sacrifices because of monthly student loan payments. Sacrifices included putting off saving for retirement (41%); delaying car purchases (40%); postponing a home purchase
(29%); and even waiting on marriage (15%).
Among the most troubling
findings were that only 39% fully understood the burden that student
loan debt would place on their future and 60% had at least some regrets about their decisionson financing their education. That's why
it's always critical to understand the full potential
impact of all your financial choices.
