Yeah, I got mine a hell of a lot quicker than I paid it back....
and I used mine to buy an old van. I was going to go cross
country in it, but never got further than NH (probably because
I went in the wrong direction).


The most creative (and educational) use of student loans I ever heard of

was

a friend of mine, who shall remain nameless. He used his student loans to
buy a nice new sports car, which he drove to Florida and traded for an old
jalopy with a trunkful of hashish. Which he drove (at speed limit) back to
New England and sold in small amounts for enough of a profit to buy a nice
chunk of land alongside a whitewater river, as well as enough boats and

gear

to start a river company, which he ran successfully for a dozen years or

so

dude should have skipped step one, hitched to fla, and bought the jalopy
and even more hash.

If anyone would know the importance of hiding the cash, it should
be you. That sports car was the ESSENTIAL step one. That was the
totally untraceable "seed" money, the rest is just "business."
