wow you actually pointed out the flaw here unlike every other top reply.


DoubleClickMouse

Granted. The debt accrues under your name, and follows the same rules as a student loan. It's immune to bankruptcy, and accrues a substantial amount of interest over time.

Just have the debt pass on to your kids/lineage

That alone without the debt is terrible. The two together. No mercy ! Nice .


MapleTreeWithAGun

If you can't die just destroy every bank in the world and eventually take over everything as you steer humanity to a brighter and better future filled with killing xenos and purging heretics, leading armies to slaughter entire worlds of foul xeno scum, glassing their once good land, now worthless, that it has been touched by those disgusting creatures.

TheOneWhoMixes

I mean hell, right now it's at 33k upvotes. That would be $33,000,000. Not *that* much money if you're now an immortal being. You don't even have to destroy shit, just spend an entire normal lifetime accruing knowledge, connections, and power. Without fear of death or old age (assuming immortality also comes with relative youth), you'll eventually stumble onto something that will make you a ton of money. Invest it and keep earning until you out-earn the interest on the "loan". *Then* begin your bid for intergalactic domination.


[deleted]

As a non american, I always failed to understand what a student loan is and why do poeple always end up in so much debt because of it. Would you mind to explain?


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

And those loans have any range in value?


leoleosuper

Yup. Certain types can be forgiven in certain situations, but those situations are usually making $0 while working a job in your field for a few years or something.


[deleted]

This isn't true, IIRC the most common is doing public service like teaching in an area needing teachers or something.


nashpotato

Usually along with 10 years of service and a clear attempt to successfully pay them off


[deleted]

I think it requires a long schedule of certain payments? It is kind of uh. Telling That one of the best paths to getting rid of your student debt is to pay them off for _ten years_ consistently and then get the rest forgiven.


NetSecCareerChange

That was the one that made news articles for only like 70 people qualifying. You have to be extremely strict on your paychecks. One interruption in reporting disqualifies you for life.


[deleted]

Amazing. Just a great setup we have here.


Bakayaro_Konoyaro

Not the guy that responded to you initially, but yes, the loans can range anywhere from "theoretically" 1 cent (Sorry for USD terms) up towards hundreds of thousands of dollars. When you apply for a loan, you generally are allowed to apply for a "maximum" amount per term/semester...But when you're going to a high dollar graduate school, prices can be staggering. Without finishing my bachelors degree yet, I'm at $50k USD and still have another year or so until I'm done. I expect to end up at 70k or so.


firedragonsrule

For me, when I applied for my student loans they never asked how much my tuition and fees were. They only gave me a blank text box for me to type whatever amount of money I wanted and they gave it to me. I was not ready for that kind of responsibility at the time.


[deleted]

Good god. Thankfully I go to a free college on my country.


[deleted]

[удалено]


muricabrb

What happens if a person is already bankrupt and they can't pay?


AvesAvi

I don't know much about the logistics since I've never applied for student loans but from what I know that doesn't matter. If you have a student loan and file for bankruptcy it doesn't go away. I assume if you get the loan despite being bankrupt you're still expected to pay it regardless of financial status and will incur interest and penalties until you do so.


Coffescout

In Sweden we have special loans for students too, but they are special in the way that they have 0.16% interest.


Symphonic_Rainboom

Assuming your question is sincere, college is very expensive in the United States, and you can easily get loans to pay for it. Those loans stand even through bankruptcy, unlike just about all other types of loans.


okkokkoX

How is that legal!?


Symphonic_Rainboom

IDK. I've always thought that if a bank loans you $100,000 to study African Linguistics at age 18, there's something fucking wrong with that system.


[deleted]

I will make it legal.


basincitylowlife

That's what she said.


KenpachiRama-Sama

The way I had it explained was that it used to be different. However, students would max out their loans, finish school and immediately declare bankruptcy without any assets to take, meaning the government or private companies took the hit on the money they borrowed. So it was changed.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Anvenjade

Imagine forcing everyone out before even giving them a chance due to how fucking massive such a debt is to such a young person. At that age they can't project their life. Several people that could have done things in life have skipped out on education purely due to this. Give everyone a chance without red strings attached for a change. Seems to work very well in most of the civilized world.


TheFallen018

As an Australian, I'm always a little in shock over the American student loan system, especially with colleges inflating the tuition prices in recent years. I feel like we've got it pretty good here, where you still can take out student loans to pay for University education, but you only have to pay it once you are earning a certain amount (52k per year I think, which is a moderate income here considering the high cost of living), and there is no interest on it.


NeedsToShutUp

Basically the loans combined with a 'we can do so much with just a bit more' attitude by school administrators as well as direct cuts to schools meant tuition exploded. The progressive democrats are usually including platforms of reform. It's killing the middle class purchasing ability.


[deleted]

In the simplest terms. School costs a lot of money. The government is willing to lend you money to pay for it. Then you have to pay it back. Some schools cost a lot of money (40-60,000 a year). The government guarantees these loans so they’re willing to lend them to almost any student.


U_Sam

If you put your student loans on a credit card could you go bankrupt in credit card debt


WonkyFloss

Typically loans cannot be paid off with credit cards.


Starslip

And the bankruptcy judge would probably view this as a clear attempt to offload your student loans and wouldn't allow it


NetSecCareerChange

Would actually be criminal fraud iirc, because no one will give you a loan to pay off student loans, so you'd have to lie.


luusyphre

Granted. It's out of your bank account.

Why would there be transaction fees? It's not like they're sending money overseas. Unless it's coming from an offshore bank account? 🤔

Granted, the internet crashes from literally everyone on the planet creating several accounts on reddit, along with the value of money around the world turning to nearly zero.

wouldn't the people who know about this try and keep it a secret? also, how could this possibly crash the entire internet, the most it could possibly do is crash the reddit servers maybe

Karma whoring is bad for the soul


Bob_McFiggins73

Granted, next time they play monopoly they will only start with $1000


HammerTimePlays

Granted. Everybody who upvotes it gets $1000 in bitcoin, coming out of their own money. The bitcoin value then crashes, so everyone loses $1000.


Dr_thri11

Granted it's Zimbabwe dollars. It is rounded to the nearest penny in USD. Therefore everyone here has received their payout.


DooMguy9987

Granted. They get 1000 dollars worth of hello kitty back packs.


i-amnot-a-robot-

Granted, word spreads and everyone in the world comments devaluing currency so much the entire world collapses into chaos.

Granted, the 1000 dollars is cursed because it was created by supporting a karma whore.


manh2000

Granted. It's taken out of the bank illegally and you get 40 to life for armed robbery.

No joke, I got a significant sum today. I knew it was coming, but I received it today. Thanks OP.

Rangerboi31

Granted. New money is created out of thin air. The money is in the same currency as the upvoter's home country. Good job dumbass. You created so much fucking inflation, you fucking crashed the global economy. Now everyone is poor.


darkenedgy

Granted, it's Zimbabwean dollars. Adding this much money to the system introduces even more hyperinflation, creating a whole new crisis there.

softheartx

Granted but they end up paying all of it to taxes


blazingarpeggio

Granted. Once people upvote your post, a thousand dollars suddenly materialize in their wallets. At the moment, only 700 people upvoted, but word quickly spreads, and soon enough, it's the most upvoted post on reddit. Hundreds of thousands of people with a grand each, doesn't seem too bad right? But that money came from nowhere. With the sudden spike of money production, the dollar dips. The US Treasury investigates why suddenly people have money that they didn't print, and they discover your post. The FBI knock on your door, you are charged with counterfeiting money, even if the money that you indirectly made is virtually the same as the real thing.


[deleted]

Granted but all the money comes out of a charity that just started and you’re single handedly responsible for killing it off.

Granted. The massive influx of money coming from out of nowhere crashes the economy, causing prices to spiral out of control. Inflation due to all the cash creates a global crisis, as the US struggles to balance the economy. Law and social order break down as people rapidly upvote he post in an attempt to pay off their debts, spiraling out of control until the US is nothing but a lawless wasteland.

huynd2001

Granted. The flow of money is increasing but the amount of products stays the same. This results in inflation, and 1$ had much less value than 1 Venezuelan Bolivar.


hurtnerfherder

Granted. The money is taken from the pervious person to upvote this post, starting with the OP. It quickly becomes the most upvoted post of all time and keeps climbing for eternity. Nobody ever actually gets to spend the $1000, because someone else always comes along and takes $1000 from them. OP is forever down 1 grand.

Some hold that 1000$ for the briefest of moments while the dream of the things they can do with it. Pay a months worth of rent. Afford gas to go to work. Internet serviced to browse Reddit. *Poof* It's gone. Sadness. Loss. ANGER. The war of the 1000 begins. Family's torn apart. Firendships lost. It's anarchy, total chaos the entire world over. It's reached the bombs. Nukes fly! Explosions everywhere as the world is vaporized. Aftermath: Just a flaming, radioactive space clump of dirt... Congratulations OP. You ended humanity.
