Student loans

My student loans were life savers when I was in school, but once I got out they became a complete pain in the you know what. I ended up with 3 different lenders so that meant I would have 3 different checks to write when I started paying them back. That added up to a major monthly expense for me. So I went to a school loan consolidation place. They were able to consolidate all of my loans into one and reduce my monthly payment. Because I paid out of state tuition and then went back to school my loans are quite high so my payment is still high, but nothing like it was when I was paying 3 different payments. I'll be glad when I get them paid off though.
