OMG! These people have to be the biggest losers ever!

The article outlines people who've left the US and--one of them--lives in the jungles of India to escape his student debt. In this case $20K. "I couldn't make the math work in America" he says. He was hospitalized for eating spoiled food, but... it's all good!
So, you get $20-$30K in debt and have to flee the country because you can't "make it" in the US? That $250 a month payment is "crushing!", just crushing I tell you!
Yes, I understand that student debt is a problem, but moving to a third world country to get away from the collectors? Over a $200 a month payment? On second thought, probably a good idea for such flunkies to leave us.
Hoping this thread doesn't turn into a student debt discussion--we've done that to death here; just thought that the whole cry-baby aspect was interesting.
Rack up a moderate debt, complain that you can't find a job and then run away and hide? Losers!
