Then you can sit in the library poking young uns with your stick telling them they don't know they were born, because in your day you got nowt for nowt and did you know you could get pished for four quid, but you can't remember the entrance money at Pools ... memory aint what it was y'know ....etc, etc..... :wink:

Do you still have to pay for a student loan when you are 65? I've been getting mine deferred for 15 years. I only have to start paying when my earnings reach £2,500 net a month.

look at the link I posted it get written off at 65. When did you start getting your loan as I am not sure if i can defer. To the people who are paying off their student debt does it come out of PAYE or does it have a seperate bit on your pay slip that says student loan, because I dont think I have paid a penny, and as long as it stays at 0% i wont be doing so.

Rules were different when I took mine out. Rulez are rulez after all as I'm sure Grave will confirm.

Or sell more pegs.
