raduated from Howard University with a B. Arch. and eventually base work in a small Architects bureau with a fellow classmate of mine in sunny Nassau, Bahamas.
I rented a beachfront bungalow and worked on Paradise Island. Life was good
Until one day I found out that I needed working papers to continue working and could not apply for them while I was living in the Bahamas.
When I was unable to secure working papers to continue working in the Bahamas, the go speedily dried up and my cash flow was abruptly disturbed.
I did what numerous red-blooded Americans do Started Living on credit cards.

I was a Master at MasterCard
Borrowing from 1 card to pay the bill on the next card. Until I maxed out ALL my credit cards and the money dried up.
Then I became a Master of Financial Disaster.
I remember when the gas furnace (which ran off of a gas tank) ran out of gas. It was $60 (which I didn't have) to refill the tank - so I just stopped cooking and only ate raw foods.
If you absence to cut back on, fair dine raw foods for months. Taste favor crap merely works like a magnetism. I lost lots of weight. I was skinny. Mainly for I ran out of money for edible.
I remember one daytime only having one USD to my appoint which bought me a small sack of potato pieces and a soda. That was my meal for the day.
At about this same period my student loans were coming due. STUDENT LOANS? You gotta be kidding me.
I couldn't even afford food - The student loans would have to await.
Guess what happens while you don't disburse your student loans? Borrowers who fail to make a remittance in due time are considered delinquent aboard their loans. Deliquent student loans are distress.
Student Loan Borrowers who don't make payments for 270 days are in default. Defaulting has severe and long-lasting consequences:

The Department of Eduction will try to gather the debt and will dictate collection prices.
And by the way, The Department of Education reports defaulted loans to citizen credit bureaus, damaging the borrowers' credit ratings and production it tough for borrowers to make purchases such as motorcars, get a home pledge or even lease an room.
- Borrowers with loans in default are ineligible because Title IV student aid.

If the holder of the defaulted loan, which may be either the U.S. Department of Education or a guaranty agent [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], retains a collection agency to collect defaulted loans, charges taxed at the collection agency may be added to the amount borrowers owe.
This means that the amount of the Student Loans may comprise collection costs of up to 18.5% of the principal and amuse outstanding on the defaulted loan.
