10-15 years:

>Wake up at 0430 to prayer call from neighborhood mosque

>Jump out of bed and put on gender neutral robe and weighted shackles I'm required to wear by the Feinstein/Frankin Privilege Elimination act of 2017 because am male

>Shake Steve, my government mandated life partner, awake because he likes to sleep through prayer call

>We jump in our Toyota Prius and drive to the Louis Farrakhan Center for Religious Studies and Islamic Enlightenment

>We're late, the obese policewoman from the Vice & Virtue department of the FBI takes a swing at me with her baton, "Move it Honkey".

>"Yes ma'am, sorry ma'am."

>Forced to listen to two and a half hour sermon from sixth term President/Grand Mufti Barack Hussein Obama on the crimes of America. Allahuakbar. Wash feet in urinal. Leave.

>Stop by the Wal-Mart down the street from my house (Localized Wealth Redistribution Center #8206) to get something to drink.

>Swing by soft drink aisle. Want to do the dew. See a 12 pack of that sweet double dew, only €19.99.

>Grab 12 pack and proceed to self-checkout. Roboto "Welcome to Wal-Mart Comrade, please log in with facebook to proceed" sigh.

>Enter my info, no euros left on my monthly ration card, shite. No dew for me and Steve.

>Proceed to my job at airport as politburo TSA officer.

>Boot up computer, try to visit SECRant/Tigerdroppings. THIS WEBSITE IS BLOCKED BY THE NSA FOR ELITIST REACTIONARY CONTENT. YOUR IP ADDRESS HAS BEEN LOGGED. Frick.

He is wrong. It's coming for the STEM majors now. The conventional wisdom about art history majors is five years old. The new reality is there can only be so many engineers and IT professionals.

How about 150k in debt?

Going to be at least 10~ years before I can get these off my back and probably more.

Then you pay what you owe. They agreed to give you money for school and you agreed to pay. They fulfilled their end of the bargain and so should you

no one is saying I shouldn't, retard (or at least I'm not). the question asked what is the biggest detriment.

just because I agreed to the terms doesn't mean it isn't a detriment.

for you to nonchalantly dismiss 150k of debt as "no big deal" is frankly moronic

Pay a certain percentage of your income every month. Not that hard or that bad. You can negotiate how much you pay. shite when I started paying all I had to give them a month was $100.

And that debt is going to be there even if you go bankrupt. So worrying about it to me is just dumb

I don't need student loans. I'll actually probably have anywhere between 20k and 30k in the bank with no debt when I graduate. And no it's not from family or anything like that.

I started with like 60k in the hole. It's a good bit higer than is should be cause of some bullshite I won't get in to. I should e able to pay it off no problem here soon, but if I just paid the minimum - which is like $415 a month, I would be paying it off for a very long time.

My degree was tough but not marketable in its field. Math major and art history minor. For math you really need a masters to get a job in that pure field. But I found something that is working out.

Recent grads got ducked because edicational costs are way too high right now. That needs to be fixed somehow for future students.

As far as thenOP, in dot see any real personal challenges, just what everyone in the country is cautiously looking at regarding the economy, tensions in the country and our foresight policy.

Healthcare costs are my biggest problem. I have a family of 5, and it's steep. The thing that really irks me is that people who don't work get it for free, along with a ton of other government goodies. I could understand if the government made them do something. An example would be picking up trash. There's no incentive for these blood suckers to get off their arse and contribute to society. I blame obama and the liberals.

I'm not technically a millennial but millennial-adjacent late GenX. Housing prices are the biggest challenge. Anywhere with good employment opportunities, housing is priced out of range. A good example of how its so different today vs the past: My grandparents bought a nice suburban home for 5,000. By the end of their working lives in the 1980s, neither with college education, they were pulling down combined salaries of at least 45,000.

At any point in your lifetime, will you be making 9 times the amount that your home costs now? Not fricking likely. Will you ever have a yearly salary of even twice what your home costs today?

Apart from some smaller developing areas, and I think NWA is still one of those unique growth areas, the housing price to wage imbalance is the biggest challenge.
