Re: Student Loan Relief?

In Ontario for a two term academic year the max money you will have to pay back is $7K. So if you received 10K you will only pay 7K. For a three term academic year the max debt is 10K. In my case I've received 15K or so and I have to pay back only 10K.

Re: Seneca

There are people in 1st year in their early 30s and late 20s. Some of them even have families.

Others are around 24-25 and already have degrees from other universities...but then again these people have no problem with money and are also smart.

KLM has trouble finding pilots

AMSTERDAM – Fewer young people are choosing to become pilots. The training costs of EUR 117,000 are too high and the profession is no longer "every boy's dream." As a result, KLM is having trouble finding enough good pilots to man its fleet. The airline will need 1,000 new pilots in the coming nine...

No offence intended, but you seem to be confusing "attitude" with ego.
