I realize that after I finish it. Also I meant to put in, what year you finish flight training =/. Oh well I still get a general ideal.

Excerpts from an article in today's WSJ about Sallie Mae's problems:

 

Sallie's travails yesterday show the extreme nervousness of investors about securities backed by financial instruments, such as mortgages and credit cards.

 

Sallie Mae also makes and resells private student loans -- which aren't backed by the government. Investors have largely lost interest in those deals, fearing they could be subject to rising defaults.

 

Sameer Gokhale, an analyst with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, says he didn't expect students to have trouble getting access to government-backed student loans. But he and other analysts said private loans may end up being less available and more costly. "One has to wonder who is going to be around to lend money to students on the private-loan side," he said.
