Retirement and life after career

[BigD9795]

This is an interesting thread. I I have been an educator for 30 years. I made a decision to invest in my education y taking out student loans to get my Master’s and Doctoral degrees. The hope was that it would payoff with some opportunities that were presenting themselves at the time. Shortly after Covid hit and those opportunities dried up. Stupidest thing I ever did was taking out those loans to get those degrees. It wasn’t a wise investment, but education was what I knew and it seems like the right thing to do at the time. I was a single dad at the time and couldn’t afford to go to school any other way. Now with basically the restructuring of the DOE, the government has decided to eliminate the contracted repayment agreement I signed and force me into a repayment plan that more than doubled my loan payment. It’s more than my mortgage now. I don’t know what we will do to get by, but I will find a way to make it work. It will force a definite change in our lifestyle. I do t consider myself much of an entrepreneur, but I am looking at ways to use the internet and social media to create an income source. I’m really thinking of starting up some lifestyle training. I’m particular, helping folks who are morbidly obese take their lives back through better nutrition and basic training. I be lived that story and I know I would be relatable to those who are trying to figure it out. I’m just going to have to figure out the blueprint. I don’t know if I will be able to afford retiring. But I’d love to build that business and retire from education and make something else that I truly have a passion for create the income flow I need and help others at the same time. I can’t think of anything that would be more rewarding. I like hearing your stories. Good luck to all of you.

Contact GeenPath. They helped me. Same thing happened during COVID. Rates went up and up. My daughter went bust and I contacted them. Massive decrease in payment at a fixed rate. I cut 8-10% interest off her loans.

Sorry it was MEFA REFI. They did her student loans. GreenPath deals with refinancing other loans. They are also good and I and others i know have had success with both.

I need to pay attention to this thread big time. I definitely need some guidance.

So I officially retired in 2019 but I fought UG up until last year. So I’ve basically been training for fights for 2 decades straight. That was my whole existence. Now that is over I’m really struggling to find a purpose in life. I have no clue wtf to do. I pretty much suck at everything and enjoy nothing else. Hopefully I get some good ideas from all you old heads that found your way.

POLITICS.

Get involved in your community and run for office.

The reason the pedo dumbfucks rule over us all is because none of us ever throw our hat in the ring.

I’ll help you get your campaign started if ya need help

You are still young enough to grab a civil service job... Obviously I don't know you, but at 36 you are still young enough to get into a fire department or something like that?

where you been? you alright?
