DTUBE EXCLUSIVE! | Finding a SOLUTION to MY problems - Student Loan Debt Holding Me Down.
Hey everyone!
In this video I want to tell you about what happened to my tax return this year, and how I'm finding a solution to get out from underneath my crippling student debt!
I woke up super early today. Like 3am. I've been waiting for my tax return to come through for quite some time now. It was estimated to be in my bank account a month ago. I finally found the status of my return and that it had been applied to 'Past debts that have not been paid'. Instantly I think of my student loans that I fear so much.
I've been putting off paying my student loans so I could travel the world and pursue my dreams of becoming a full time travel vlogger. Today they finally caught up to me and claimed my $677 tax return that I was very much counting on. I'm ok with it. At least it went towards a debt of mine and didn't disappear all together. I just need to get some things figured out financially now a little sooner than I expected.
My loans are now in default. Which basically means my tax return will go straight towards my debt, my wages at a job may be garnished, and my credit score is taking a big hit. Frankly, I don't really care about my tax return. I don't need a fancy car or a big house to be happy. I dream of acquiring a Van to live and travel out of, and continue making DTube videos and pursuing other creative work. Through this route of revenue stream I can avoid getting my wages garnished as well.
Don't get me wrong, I fully plan on paying my debts off. I've just been working towards it. I just really wish I could go back and talk to my 18 year old self and let myself know that it's ok to not go to college, to not join the military, and to pursue my dreams of traveling the world. Instead I went to school for four years, heavily questioning the entire time what I was doing there, but just knowing I've been told it's 'the best thing for my future'.
The weight of these loans hurts me. It strains my emotions and leaves me feel panicky. I'm going to continue working hard towards my dreams and try to get it all figured out. I'm going to get my van, continue working and saving up, and hopefully I can pay it all off at once! I'll also continue to post here and save up SBDs. Maybe a miracle will happen and SBD value will sky rocket again and I'll be able to cash out big time! Wow, that sounds so amazing.
I just want to thank 
I know I'm not the only one in this position, but I'm trying to learn what I can here and work towards being free of this strain. I hope I could help you see that there's a solution to every problem, you just have to figure out what that solution is.
Hope you all have a great day and thank you for watching,
Jordan
