I am about to graduate from a medical school, with an educational debt of $200K. My starting salary in the profession will be around $125K/year, and should steadily go up aroud 5% every year for the next 25 years.

Is it good idea to pay back this loan right away, or opt to choose a 30 yrs repayment plan?

Also, if I choose the repayment option (30 years), will this be good on my credit report, rather than paying it back in 3-5 years?

Thanks

What do you think of the quote? Does it say anything to you? How does it make you feel?

"Volume 8, Book 73, Number 8:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:

Allah's Apostle mentioned the greatest sins or he was asked about the greatest sins. He said, "To join partners in worship with Allah; to kill a soul which Allah has forbidden to kill; and to be undutiful or unkind to one's parents." The Prophet added, "Shall I inform you of the biggest of the great sins? That is the forged statement or the false witness." Shu'ba (the sub-narrator) states that most probably the Prophet said, "the false witness.""

hey!
well, i've realised that a lot of people i know (Older cousins who are in their 20's), look entirely different to how they look when they were teenagers.
For example, someone who went through an "ugly phase" has turned out extremely beautiful once they reached 20

So....my question is, do you believe that people look better when they reach their 20's? Coz i really hope that i look a lot better than i do now (i'm 18)

This question has probably made no sense at all, but i hope someone understand what i'm saying lol

When the economy falls in a stagflation, the expansionary policies can help to reduce the unemployment rate. However, it will push the inflation even higher. Conversely, the contractionary policies can help to reduce the inflation rate due to the aggregate demand decreases. It however will drive the unemployment rate even further. How???????

I see this dualistic thinking as something animalistic that needs to be shed once humans continue to evolve into a beings that are greater.

Alan and his friend martin went out hunting. Martin had never hunted before, so he was following Alan's lead. Alan saw a herd of deer and told Martin to stay in the exact spot he was and to be quiet. A moment later, Alan heard a scream. He ran back and asked Martin what had happened. "A snake slithered across my feet", said Martin, "but that didn't make me scream. Then a bear came up to me and snarled, but I still didn't scream". "So why did you?" Alan asked, infuriated. "Well," Martin went on, "two squirrels crawled up my trousers and I heard one of them say, 'Should we take 'em home or eat 'em now?"

I received a reckless driving ticket for doing 83mph in a 65mph zone while driving on I-81 south. I was on a motorcycle in the middle of a pack of four bikes following two cars, all of us going the same speed, and the state cop pulled me over??? I asked him why he would pick me out of the middle of the pack, and he said that the laser locked on me. I am scheduled to go to court next week. Does this seem possible for him to lock on me, and can I at least get this reduced to a speeding violation instead of reckless????????
Thank you for your advice.
