He will probably never be able to retire, and will most likely have to work for the rest of his life to pay it off. And odds are that he will probably die, before he can fully pay it off. He most likely won't open his own firm, and won't get high profile cases. But hey, he's a lawyer. Yay!

I didnt grow up poor and funnily enough, where I come from, powdered milk was the reserve of wealthier middle class families (because it had to be imported and was therefore expensive and could only be purchased from one of the five supermarkets we had in our city). We always had it at home, but whenever I visited less well off relatives, it was kept under lock and key and rationed only in the morning on the special ocassions when we were given cereal to eat lol.

    Amazing man! Not only did he follow his dreams but what an example he provided for his children. Never complained about his situation, became a damn good mechanic while still wanting to pursue another career path. Folks like him are a very rare breed, there is so much to learn from a person of such character.
    His mechanical expertise will assist him in diagnosing his patients. Congratulations kind Sir, I wish you well and I’m sure you already are an awesome Doctor. God Bless you and your family!

    Omgoodness!!! This is right on time. I'm a single mom who just turned 47, and demand a higher education for my child. So I thought I would set the example and enrolled back into my local college just to be told 30 years ago I dropped every class except one (when I attend a semester there at 18), and that grade land me now on academic probation. Plus with the cost , even part time, is out my extra income reach. So again I said forget it, I've been getting by for 47 years what the use of trying to go back, it's too late (especially if they're making me that math) Now after seeing this I believe I'll keep pushing towards better
