He didn’t even mention that save has 5% payments but interest doesn’t occur if you make the minimum payment. The math can actually be better just to wait out the 20 years if you have a big balance.
But why in the heck would anybody want to wait 20 years to start paying off a student loan? Because if you wait 20 and I start paying now I'll be done and moving forward before you even get started. Or am I misunderstanding what you're saying?
