Alright guys I’m back with another student loan
update! After my last video I thought that Mr. Biden was done with the federal pause
on student loan interest and repayment was going to begin soon. Apparently, he
had a change of heart, and the extension has been put in place until May 1,
2022. Many people breathed a sigh of relief I’m sure and a little bit of hope
has been placed back into the potential of student loan forgiveness being a thing
again.
Figure 1: This is a YouTube thumbnail of my latest video on “Joe Byron Extends Pause on Student Loans Again!” where I am looking at the camera with a smug look. I am wearing a grey shirt, a gray beret, and there is a window in the background.
While my hope in student loan forgiveness was put on the backburner a long time ago it did get me to thinking a bit. Why is the pause continuing to be extended? Why can’t Biden just cancel student loan debt? What’s really holding him up? I have no clue to any of these questions honestly and I’m done racking my brain about it. I saw a post from the NAACP that stated that if Biden can keep extending the pause on interest, then he can forgive student loans as well. I couldn’t agree more however it is not happening and I’m done waiting.
Figure 2: This is a screen shot from the NAACP that says, “If you can afford to pause student loan payments over and over again, you can afford to cancel it.” There is a multi-colored background with a photo of money.
I am paying on my last student loan, and I will be finished with this whole thing long before May 1, 2022. With another extension I am encouraging you to make some head way on your student loans. It’s not too late! I understand that many individuals have an insurmountable amount of student loan debt but the way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time. That’s exactly what I did and I am almost there guys and you can do it too!
