Quotes to ponder:
"If you have debt, you are not a free person. You are explicitly owned by your debt and implicitly owned by the creditor."
"Your twenties is a good time to make sacrifices. Most likely, this will be the healthiest time of your life."
"Now is the time to explore things that are meaningful to you. Travel. Work in another country. Try a different career."
