I'm saying that bankruptcy at 22 or however young is the much better option. You get it discharged before 30, and so it doesn't even impact the terms you get if you're trying to buy a house for a lot of people. If your options are bad credit for 7 years in your 20's, or 250k in debt, then everyone is going to choose the bad credit every time.

maybe that's how it should be. Then kids wont get approved for 250k loans due to the risk and colleges will have to either ask for more money upfront (good luck), expect less students (not good for funding), or lower tuition.

Bankruptcy is ten years now, for what it’s worth.
