I think some people think that the point of money is to accrue it and let it sit in the bank. Student loans are a pretty good deal. Some bank gives students with absolutely NO credit a lot of money to get an education that exponentially improves their abilities to make back that money and more in the future. Hmmm...sounds like an investment to me. Some investments are made to start business, some are made into people. $100,000 to fund my medical education was a bargain, and I'm paying it back as slowly as I can...because I can, and I don't give a damn. Money doesn't mean that much to me. Having my education, getting through it in the least amount of time and getting on with my life so my family and I can be happy is the most important thing. Paying interest...so what?
