$250,000 in student debt after 13 years...

> Sounds like you want people to live with nothing because they have student loans.

I want people to live responsibly              

> Netflix is less than $15 a month!

that's $15 month that could be going toward paying off your debt                
every little bit adds up

people have to make a choice

I have $15 I can use to pay off part of my debt or I can use it to subscribe to netflix            
the responsible thing would be to pay of my debt, but I think I'll subscribe to netflix instead and then tweet about how I had no choice but to sell my eggs

> A landline phone costs more than my monthly AT&T bill for our smartphones.

good for you

$15 isn't going to make much of a difference in the interest her loans are accumulating. Who said anything about tweeting anything? I mentioned my AT&T smartphone bull because you were rambling on about how people have $1000 phones today. Everyone doesn't. Many people have phones that are paid off and don't have a landline. People need a phone today.

The problem is adjuncts don't make much, often only around $3000 per term.

You would make far more money flipping burgers at McD's than being an adjunct teacher.

How would she have time to work at McD's while completing her PhD and her adjunct duties? Being an adjunct gets her experience in the field! McD's doesn't. She also wouldn't be networking there unlike her adjunct position.
