Graduating without debt has affected my outlook and early career much more than I realized it would have. I paid for school with a combination of sports and acting scholarships and some money my parents had been saving for school since I was a child.
Getting out without debt allowed me to move to a city right after school with some meager savings, take a few months figuring out what I wanted to do, and take a job that paid very little upfront but had a large potential payoff.
I can count on one hand the number of people I know my age without any student debt. It's insane. It's also limiting with dating. It's odd to think I may inherit (in some way shape or form) 25K-100K of student loan debt from a significant other.
