> Well, not really. Are college students taking their student loans and blowing it on "lavish lifestyles"? Or are they just trying to scrape by?

I live in Boulder, and it's really all over the place.

There a lot of kids just scraping by.

But there are also a lot of kids who don't work, but rent >$2k a month apartments and drive Audis and BMWs.

Obviously their parents are funding them, but I'm pretty sure they take out a lot of loans, too.
