Is it better for a new grad to pay off loan debt or invest with their money?

johnlert22 asked:


I just finished grad school and I’m in debt about $80,000. I make about $65,000 per year. I got a letter from my loan company saying that in 2005, I paid $1700 just in interest. Seems like so much. I was wondering what is better long term: reduced loan debt or investing and taking the tax deduction from student loan interest?
I think my interest rate on
Stafford loan is about 2.5% and private loan at Great Lakes is 6%. I never got around to refinancing but I think I will now

What is the lowest credit score I can have to get a student debt consolidation loan?

Loon-A-TiK asked:


i have a lot of student loan debt and want to consolidate. however, i’m sure that because it is a private loan they’re going to run my credit. do you know what is the lowest score i can have to consolidate?
I don’t need debt management- my bad credit is the result of the ratio between my income and huge student loans. This totally messes with your credit. I’m working with a law firm to get this under control. I just need to consolidate my loans and while I can wait until my credit improves, I want to start saving money now.
