Teach Spec. Ed and it should pay all of it. It is not difficult to get a position at one of this types of schools. They found in most improvished areas and inner-cities.

Answer by : mythumbhurts On Date 2008-11-08 20:25:03 pay more than $200 if you possibly can. i guess you'll have to figure out how much a month you can afford to see how much you can up that amount. because the more you pay off, the smaller the amount is, which means that the interest accruing on the loan will be less since the amount is now less. this is why people get in so much trouble when they just pay the 10 or 15 buck minimum on credit card payments... yeah you're paying - but you're not making a big enough dent to be paying just the principle (the loan itself, not the interest that has builded up into the new amount) Answer by : jesser On Date 2008-11-09 00:40:10   Go Back To Search Results
