This episode examines the real math: why the US federal loan apparatus cannot effectively reach borrowers living and earning abroad, the professional cost of carrying six-figure debt through every career decision you make, and what it means when the system produces record-level abandonment not from deadbeats but from employed professionals with degrees they used.
