Our Student Loan Secrets: Diane's Story

Death, Sex & Money - Un pódcast de Slate Podcasts - Martes

"I'm not sure my daughter understands the scale of the Parent PLUS loans we took on to put her through college," Diane told us. Although she says she's glad that she and her husband were able to help their daughter pay her her education, Diane says the debt is equivalent to buying another home or taking several European vacations—which they now aren't able to do in their retirement.
