Facts never claimed to be PC.
Anonymous86240 : When you use emotional. childishly derogatory language like you use, don't expect people take your "judgment" seriously.
698- No you're the imbecile, and your company is circling the toilet because people like you failed to give any consideration to how real people plan their budgets. You will never get anything when your education quality is garbage and people can't afford the basics first. I base my judgement on math, you apparently base yours on a crack pipe.
Anonymous85606: How would you know? You've never made $80K (salary that results in around $5K take home a month). And people who do have working cars and health insurance. Just stop repeating the same nonsense over and over as though it's going to start making sense if you just stick to your guns. You're an imbecile.
559- Holy hell your ignorance of basic household economics is stunning. A lot of people bring home $2500 every 2 weeks and still doesn't mean they can go buy some huge house or pay a thousand a month in student loans.. All it takes is one sick kid, a sick parent, buying at the wrong time or a bad interest rate, a car repair, a medical bill, or trying to get married and that $2500 doesn't last very long. There are MANY parts of the country where a one bedroom apartment costs over $3000 a month by itself, aside from any other bills.
85452...Do you also blame the fact you live in a trailer park on Obama? Do you blame Obama that your mother married her cousin which then produced you? Do you blame Obama on why you couldn't get into college as a result the best job you ever had is working at Everest? Do you blame Obama that you call yourself a real American (because this boosts your low self esteem), that you say to your few friends you'll die for your country yet you were too chicken shit to join the military? Is Obama the reason why you probably use coke, pills and/or meth on a daily basis in order to numb the fact that you have not gotten anywhere in life? Please help me understand what is not Obama's fault so that I can be a well informed individual like yourself........Thanks a bunch!
Anonymous85452 ....I was waiting on a stupid rant by a Re-pubic-hair nut job to surface and just as expected.......there they go! How did I know this would turn to Obama.....damn you dummies (Republicans) sound like a broken record. You blame anything and everything that you disagree with as Obama's fault. Is blaming him for your social woes......is this all you have? Shows a lack of intelligence on your part but again this is what the republican party is made up of.....uneducated, uninformed nut jobs who listen to talk radio/tv all day long and repeat what they hear. Do this for me dummy......show me how your taxes have increased from when that idiot GW Bush was in office compared to now. Show me how you had more money back then when he was spending money like crazy (small gov't republican my ass) compared to now. Hold on I'll wait............yeah you can't prove it because you're an idiot!
If you're take home pay is $2500 every two weeks and you live in a tiny apartment and eat beans you must have one hell of a drug habit.
Many of you are forgetting or conveniently ignoring the fact that CCi lied to prospective students. No amount of research by these students would have revealed these lies. Student made decisions about attending based on these lies. There are many investigations still underway regarding CCi's lies to students, and I hope JM, BBu, BW, BBo, and many of the other ELT end up in prison for what they did to students AND American taxpayers. You CCi apologists are either paid scum bags or simply a bunch of idiot kookaid drinkers.
You guys are idiots. Yes $5000 a month, or $2500 every 2 weeks doesn't go very far especially if you are married or have a decent auto payment plus insurance, gas, maintenance, a job that requires dry cleaning and nice clothes, a babysitter or daycare a few times a month, any kind of healthcare expenses..
In your stupid little mind every person who graduated from your shitty school should live 6 people to a tiny apartment eating ramen noodles and beans for 30 years to pay back the money your management blew on drugs and hookers before the recession even hit.
Spot on 449!
Hey Cumdump where can I find an app to sign up so I don't have to pay taxes to Obama? He lied to me about the fu*#ing Army deserter he traded five of the most dangerous terrorists for. He's lied to and cheated a hell of a lot more people than CCi did. We should refuse to pay our taxes to such an Ahole. He spit in the eye of every brave soul who served in the military.

354,356 are correct. If these students today continue to fail doing their researches before attending a for profit schools of their choice, then they should be held fully accountable for their mistakes. However, cut some slacks for the students that were unaware or were simply got screwed. Maybe these were the students that didn't have Google, Yelp, Glassdoor, and other social medias bullshit to spread the rumors like wildfire. They simply didn't have that much resources available compared today.
I agree that they need to clear five thousand dollars a month to pay their bills. With a five hundred dollar cellphone bill and a thousand dollar a month drug habit there's not much left to pay a loan payment. Plus you have to throw in a couple hundred dollars for tattoos each month and I see why they can't pay their bills.
373 In the real world, your degree in Liberal Arts may be worthless as it sounds;) Yes, it should be forgiven, as well for the folks that received their degrees in Electronics, IT, Medical, and Criminal Justice that can't find jobs because employers view them as worthless. Restitution should be even awarded to those that have their lives ruined by this shenanigan.
Sounds like a legal firm gathering data for a class action suit.....
Ha ha! You'd have to be an idiot to give those people your personal info. I went on the site and they ask you a shitload of personal questions and then get to a part where they say "Now we’ll prompt you to describe different aspects of your experience with Everest" and you're to check all that apply from 14 statements (all starting with "they misled me about..."). Then you get to a section headed with "Now we'll ask you to explain how the conduct you’ve already described here by Everest caused you harm you and put you in debt." and you check off any of a bunch of options including "stress or emotional pain." Then there's statement "If Everest hadn't lied and misled me in the ways I just described, I would not have attended or continued to attend." Of course the only option there is to check "I agree" to continue. Hilarious!
377- Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. What kind of math are you using to come up with $20,000 in pure interest? At least get your facts straight before you try to slam someone. Unbelievable! 370- Are you seriously trying to tell us it takes a $80,000 gross income to live in a single bedroom apartment and pay a student loan? These kind of ridiculous arguments only make you look foolish. If you want to complain at least be factual in your statements. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
373- Maybe you should take a math class to figure out what part of this doesn't make sense.. Hint - expecting people making under $30,000 a year to pay back $20,000 a year in pure interest simply isn't going to happen.
Wow, thanks for the tip, CK. Maybe if EVERYONE refuses to pay back the taxpayers, the government will just forgive them all! "I got a worthless grad degree in liberal arts." Forgiven! "Nobody will hire me because I'm an unprofessional, disheveled mess." Forgiven! "I decided to be a stay-at-home mom instead of working." Forgiven! We'll just cut out billions from social services and education.
354- How are they going to pay when surviving in a single bedroom apartment plus paying those loans would mean clearing $5000 a month after taxes?
Who in the hell would pay thousands of dollars for something without first researching it? If you do a google search they would have seen how horrible the school is/was! How is it the school's fault? TELL THEM TO PAY THEIR STUDENT LOANS!
How about they pay their debt!!!!!!!!!!!!! They should have read what they signed and they should have researched how sorry Everest was as a college before attending it. It's not hard......you type in a google search and you will see how sorry the school is so they didn't do all that so it's not the schools fault they need to pay their loans!
