Why didn't you take Bafög?

  This is just an example of welfare policy issues in general, when edge cases creep up that cause all kinds of problems. It's not a German example however, never lived there. I did receive cheap student loans by the way, but I don't want rack up lots of debt so I liked to work part-time where I could. And even with loans covering tuition fees, for the two of us to live on 950 euros a month (or even 3 when my brother lived with us) is not a great deal even if I didn't have any college costs, or had all of them covered by a state program.

  I don't know about IkmoIkmo, but I think there are some cases where it's hard to get for some silly reasons.
