Kansas-based med school grad determined to pay off $200K in student loans herself
Fox News
Olivia Ray of Kansas, a recent medical school grad, has paid off $30,000 of her $200,000 student loan debt. She's determined to pay it off in full by 2026.
"If broad loan forgiveness is started, then the value of a degree, even a medical degree, would decrease drastically." "On Fridays I would rush from my clinical rotations at the hospital to get to a half-off sale at my local thrift store, where I would buy 30+ items a week." "In 2022, it is a good idea to diversify your income as well as your skillset." Elizabeth Economou is a contributing lifestyle reporter for Fox News Digital.
Her secret weapon for paying down $30,000 of her debt so far? It's what she calls her "side hustle."
Since 2019, Ray has netted nearly $85,000 by selling clothing on Poshmark, Inc., a digital secondhand marketplace.
