Had to pick up someone from a hotel a few days ago and helped myself to breakfast, lunch, and dinner which was all cold leftover breakfast. abused the free coffee too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR4 Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 also, if you ever go out to a place where they have complimentary peanuts or bread.....take advantage. That's what a man-purse is for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest the anonymous forumite Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 There is, at least, one lesson to be learned from this thread: don't ever indulge in students loans. It is so crazy for us europeans (?) the cost of advanced studies in the US. I mean, if I knew right from the start that by the end of my studies, I would be indebted of 100'000 $, I would never study in the first place. There are other ways to succeed in life or just to lead a moderately confortable one. I know it's easy for me to say this since I don't have to pay much for Uni but anyway. So many stories I've read about people being ruined because of their students loans. I feel pretty sorry for those who are in that situation though. It sucks so much.

BCM Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 my student loan is bad enough and it was only around £9K total....been paying it off for years but have hardly bought it down at all, it's a right cunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR4 Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 Mine is under 20,000, so apparently I am in a better situation than most, but not by much. The thing that really pisses me off is that I went on a complete fellowship, but I had to work part-time there for peanuts, taking three grad classes....and then you have rent, food, books, registration fees, gas, etc. etc. so I ended up having to borrow a student loan anyway. WTF seriously. It better come in handy when moving up in academia resume-wise, otherwise I would have been better off working fulltime at a restaurant or something.

chenGOD Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 the cost of schooling in north america is fucking retarded and it continues to go up. There is a huge difference between the cost of schooling in America and the cost of schooling in Canada. There are kids at UBC because they say it's cheaper than going to school in state (and UBC is a pretty decent school). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root5 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I don't know if it's like this across all programs, but UBC is actually like half the price of most Canadian universities when it comes to my program. And yeah, like 40% of the people I know are Americans who wanted cheaper schooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest glasse Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I do a fair amount of grocery shopping at the dollar store. My dollar store is pretty good though; bread, popcorn chicken, peanut butter, etc they have it. Chips, peanut butter. Always check there before hitting the regular store.
