higher education is free in Poland. We have private schools and unis but they're not the most highly valued. Warsaw and Cracow (Jagiellonian) unis are the best in rankings etc.

I never understood the concept of student loans that are so prevalent in the US. Why the hell should you get in debt for education? Fuck that shit :mcargh:

Not only is my school expensive, it's 100% online. I had to ask to extend my loans this semester because they didn't give me enough loan money to cover tuition. They extended it, and then I realized that they didn't give me enough money to buy my books. They gave me a grant, and I'm thankful that they don't make us repay those unless I don't make good grades.

I have one more summer semester to graduate. I'll have 60k in debt. My therapist was like lol I only have 1k-2k left and I tried really hard to not be mad at him. X_X

I understand inflation, as our collective lack of valuing things we buy (the consumer mentality) leads to money becoming less and less valuable. I just really hate how those big ass companies make use of this to keep pumping up their prices. :}

Foxes are clever, perceptive, and shrewd. You're happiest working behind the scenes, pulling strings and watching others dance to your imperceptible tune. Independent yet highly social, you glide among your circles of acquaintance with ease, sharing your sharp wit or a delicious piece of gossip.

Colleges where I live add more money to tuition when they build new buildings and things like parking garages.

Since I'm online, I also have to pay to proctor exams if they require them for testing. We don't get the heads up until classes start sometimes.

I could complain for HOURS about how expensive things are in my city - I hate it so much.

I'm currently trying to buy a house so that I don't end up homeless (getting the sense my landlord wants to kick me out) but the prices are totally unaffordable and it's stressing me out so bad

All I want is a little flat, how do FAMILIES cope with the cost of living?

There's inflation, and then there's the fact that salaries remain the same instead of getting hikes on par with inflation. Society is stupid.

Akili Li wrote:People talk about bravery in these super dramatic terms like it only applies to soldiers going to war, but for all that I think true courage is found in the hard every day moments of social interaction and standing up for what you believe in even when it's not life-or-death, when it's instead a matter of approval-or-ostracization among people whose opinions you care about. That's harder, to my mind. That's an ongoing, you have to live with it forever thing, instead of one single moment that's the exception instead of the rule.

I don't cope very well. I have a job and my parents look straight through it because it's not the job they want me to have. It's really upsetting sometimes lol.

With my income I would not even be able to mortgage a storage shed in my hometown, that is how stupidly expensive my place of residence is.
My best friend has a really good income, but as she got divorced this year her single income is not even enough to buy a 'cheap' category house. It is crazy. :}
