My interest rate on one of my loans is 10.75 %, I pay {$160.00} a month on this loan alone and not a dime of it goes toward my principle amount! I 've been paying over {$600.00} a month for years just on my private loans, and at one point I was paying {$970.00} a month. I did not get help from any adult family members to go to college. I had to pay for it myself, I knew nothing about loans and interest rates. My student financial adviser filled most forms out for me. I trusted my college which was a huge mistake, they were private and for profit only. I am now an adult an feel completely taken advantage of. I am almost XXXX and ca n't even start a savings account. A full paycheck is taken monthly by Navient, which was XXXX XXXX and changed without my knowledge until I was some how delinquent and owed a company I had never heard of money. I can not create a life worth living with this unreasonable debt. I make under XXXX a year, I have bills. I ca n't even afford a car because of my student loan debt. Please someone help me!!!
