badgirl asked:


BadGirl has an idea. What if I dump all of my student loans into a refinance and/or home equity (on property I own, but need to unload), and then I decide to bail on that property. It will take me a good 20 years to pay off my large student loan, but how long will it take to recoup my credit rating if I do this? BadGirl thinks it will take longer to pay off the student loan, than rebuild a bad credit rating (and get rid of the student loan debt for good).
Comments/suggestions?
BadGirl was not considering a bankruptcy, just giving the property back to the lender and dealing with the rest. You are right about the fact that I should be smarter, but I actually make about $40K less than I did before I became a teacher, and have more college debt because of it. I was thinking about refinancing with the same shitty company that talked me into the interest only rate to begin with-I thought maybe I could give them some of their “interest” back.
