If you were an Aussie or New Zealand citizen or permanent resident you could've done an undergraduate degree in Medicine or Law/Arts or Law/Commerce at the very best top tier universities here that would've set you back $9k a year for the five years of the degree. So $45k debt all up to be a Doctor or Lawyer.
You'd have automatically qualified for a scheme where you'd get an interest free inflation adjusting loan that they'd only start taking out of your salary once you start working full time.
If you had the cash on hand and could've payed up front during your degree, you'd have gotten a 20% discount too, so maybe as low as $36k total for a top tier undergrad Law or Med degree in a first world English speaking country.

The US undoubtedly holds the most prestigious higher learning institutions in the world but with the rising costs of college/uni in the country you have to start asking yourself if it's worth it getting a degree that will set you back close to 80k when you can get the same degree (though with not the same prestige) in other parts of the world for a trifle. Got about 15k left of my student debt myself on a ten year plan.

saw looper last night. analyzed with this thread in mind, it's about a rich kid who goes clubbing with packs of dudes, gets high, never pulls, resorts to whores, and gets oneitis over an asian. $$$!
