How inspiring! Wishing your travel channel just as much success as this blog. An interesting YouTube travel channel I watch is Kara and Nate. Their goal is to travel to 100 countries by 2019. I watched that channel grow from 9k to over 60k in a year so they might have some ideas as to how to get started. Best of luck!

A lot of people that I know that have $100K+ student loan debt, have very lucrative careers (i.e. dentists, lawyers, pharmacists, RN’s, etc). They can easily work additional hours per diem or do side hustles WITHIN their area of expertise. This is huge because most people who do side hustles make very little additional income. Whereas a lot of these jobs with certifications and licenses, command a certain stable market wage. It’s a huge advantage.

Many lawyers graduate with well over $100,000 in student loan debt. It can feel unsurmountable and crippling at first.

#2 (Earn as Much as You Can – At Least for Awhile) is great advice for young lawyers. I’d only add to it that while you’re earning as much as you can, you need to be managing that income and diverting a massive amount to student loans. Often earning more money = higher stress, so it’s easy to spend the extra income as a way to blow off steam.

If you stick to it though, you can knock out $100K+ student loans in a few years. Going forward you will have so much more freedom.

#4 and #5 are my favorites. Most people really need to cut a ton of shopping out of their budgets. Also, side hustles often become full time jobs, so everyone should at least do Something on the side. Who knows where it will lead
