Just found out something wild - apparently tons of millionaires are still paying off student loans. Like, you'd think once you hit millionaire status you'd be debt-free, but nope. The data shows that wealthier people actually tend to have MORE student debt on average, which is kind of counterintuitive.



Get this: Ron DeSantis, Florida's governor who's now a millionaire, still owes over $18,000 from his Yale and Harvard Law days. Even after making serious money, he's still carrying that student debt. And he's not alone - the higher your income bracket, the more you're likely to owe in student loans. People in the top 10% income range average around $60,000+ in student debt.

The whole student loan forgiveness debate is still a mess too. Biden tried wiping out $400 billion but the Supreme Court shut it down. Meanwhile, guys like DeSantis are against forgiveness altogether, saying it's unfair to people who already paid theirs off.

It's kind of eye-opening how many wealthy people are still dealing with this. Makes you wonder if the whole system is just designed to keep people in debt no matter how successful they become. Anyone else surprised by this?
