From an investment perspective, medical school gives one of the greatest returns. Even if his loans is 500K, it is still a great investment.

I really thought you will see the story for its greatness instead of assuming his loan balance.

Good story. My daughter is in medical school, her path was a little easier.

This country is indeed the greatest country for an immigrant or children of immigrants notwithstanding the current state of affairs.

True and that's all Americans- 99.9% of the population are "immigrants or children of immigrants."

This is a great story, most times the only limitation is in our head.

Congrats, most MD's from Mona/TNT come out with a world class degree in medicine and little debt, relative to US med students... Morehouse then Emory afterwards made it that we came out with no student debt.

Congrats to your daughter!

Thanks guys.

When it comes to med school debt I find myself feeling a bit guilty knowing that she will be saddled with some debt.

I'll have to continue to help and skip some golf trips.
