$347,000 in student debt who can't land a job...

[dfrecore]

1st - calling him a "first-generation student" is a complete lie- he already had a bachelor's degree and was working as a social worker. So let's at least tell the truth about things.

2nd - he took out loans for law school, but seems to have been student-debt free prior to that

3rd - he's 37! Which means he was 32 when he graduated law school. Which means he was 29 when he began law school. He was not some 18yo with zero guidance. He was a grown-ass man with a degree, working in his field when he made all of these decisions

4th - he graduated from law school but didn't take/pass the bar exam - so he's not a lawyer, which is why he can't get a job!

This is all written as if he's just a victim, rather than someone who made terrible decisions. He CHOSE to leave a job in his field. He CHOSE to take out a massive amount of debt. He CHOSE to not sit for the bar exam (with a sick fiancee' he could easily have taken her to live with her parents and then studied for the bar exam there right away). He made bad CHOICES and then is complaining about having to live with them. He's an idiot.
