Credit card debt coupled with student loans is what sinks people. That is what happened to my brother. Your plan is brilliant, you can always build savings again as you pay off the loans. I wish you luck and drop a line - where are you heading?<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('954','Nomadic Chick'); return false;">Reply </a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('954','Nomadic Chick','@Crystal - I\'d say you\'re doing well.

No mortgage, no kids, no car... and unlike many of my peers, no credit card debt. The plan right now is to travel as much as I can on my savings before I have to start paying off loans. Luckily student loans don't start accumulating interest until 6 months after your graduation. And who knows? By then, I may have found a job that'll allow me to be fairly location-independent. :)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('953','Crystal'); return false;">Reply </a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('953','Crystal','My big hindrance will be #1, the student loans, as I\'m about to graduate and don\'t really have the other ones weighing on me yet.
