Cause you know, if you have to pull that, but if it feels like this is extended for 10 years, it feels like it's forever.

I just can't do it.

I lose my hope, you know?

Yeah.

Um,

And, yeah, I think that's probably the way to go there.

So, guys, Christine's obviously a very bright lady, and I'm glad we were able to help her.

Setting her particular situation and her particular self aside for a second, this is how the student loan crisis occurred.

This is how we have almost $2 trillion now in student loan debt out there.

Because we told people that your life, if you go get an education, your life is going to be exactly what you want it to be.

And it never works out that way.

I talked to a lady not long ago who's making $400,000 a year as an MD, and she had a special needs child.

And now she's faced with this desperate desire to be at home with a special needs child versus her $400,000 income and her $600,000 in student loan debt.

And so she's trapped between this and that situation.

That's a more extreme version of what Christine is facing.

But as Christine so eloquently said,

They don't tell you this when you're in law school.

No, they don't.

That as soon as you hold that baby in your arms, things change.

Things change.
