It All Started

Peace, Steemians.

I made this song to express my current frustrations with Federal Student Loans and higher education. I feel many people can relate to this sentiment. We are sold a format or a path to success here in America; to be successful one must go to college and get a degree. Many have found this path to lead to a dead end. Students graduate with their degree and an array of student loans only to accept an entry-level position a few dollars over the minimum wage. How could one maintain their stability while paying 10% of the loans a month off of this income. This essentially pushes the new professional into minimum wage. Why waste the effort?

I share these same struggles and I want to advise to my peers to keep pushing and hustle. Get creative find an outlet where you can build passive income; or if you can't create a service or goods to sell. Whatever you do - DON'T GIVE UP! It's going to be hard to swim and stay afloat if you allow yourself to be drowned in debt. I've found ways to bring in extra cash by selling instrumental work for artists. If anyone needs beats get at me.

Don't Forget to upvote and resteem!
