Let's say that instead of paying down $100 dollars a month on the principal of the loan they'd only paid the interest and stuck the $100 in a savings account. Would you consider that savings? Would you consider it better to have $0 in debt and $0 in your savings account than being $1000 dollars in debt and having $1000 in your savings account.
