I want to get rid of almost $40k in student loans. However, to say I feel distraught & overwhelmed is an understatement. It seems like it would take me FOREVER to get that debt paid off. In addition, I still rent a room and am in my mid 30s! with no children yet. I make a little over minimum wage and finance my car. I'm considering grad school, just to increase income but the expense is scary. Not having my own place is stressful. I'm losing my youth & I'm not even indulging in anything. It's not like I go on shopping sprees or go out. Any suggestions on how to tackle this?
ps. i got in this situation because i went through some health issues that did not allow me to work for some years.
