Ten billion dollar student loans. Pay ya bills you lazy Gen Yers.

I want to apply for an individual grant program to help me pay-off some debt. I know there are some programs that I need to apply to and write a grant proposal for in order to receive the grant, but where can I find these organizations? I don’t have any idea. Can you suggest any program that will help me with applying for and receiving grant money through the U.S. govt.? I will appreciate your help.

Was working hard and paying my fees off (mostly) year by year, then Labour did the intrest free scheme (which i actually opposed as i looked at the bigger picture of how it would effect NZ's economy VS the bums on seats mentality that goes on now) so i stopped paying my fees, got a loan, at the end of study took a bit of a holiday over to the States with the money i would have paid off my loan with, came back and started paying off the loan at the minimum amount. You would be foolish to pay it off at anything more than the minimum amount now, just put it into a bank account and let it earn interest, its what im doing, currently getting about $120 a month from interest which is great for fuel etc, money for nothing
