Nope. Many are doing Outfit of The Day. I'm not on TikTok but there is someone on Instagram (@destinee.moreh) who takes these videos and breaks down the cost of the outfits. One today was a PNM who wore a Rolex, Cartier bracelets, $900 Hermes belt and $700 shorts. The total cost of the outfits often run $5000 - $15,000.
She did Bama and Ole Miss too.


Edit: just saw another where one PNM's outfit totaled over $40k with her Cartier watch.

My parents just got a new used car recently and they paid less than that outfit

I search and saw some cute outfits. I do like how rather than doing a mandatory PHC shirt, the PNMs can buy any shirt from the bookstore that they like and style it in their own way. While making a shirt everyone is wearing stand out can be a unique challenge, I see this as a better compromise.

And this, Ladies and Gentlemen, is why we more "seasoned" taxpayers balk at the whole Loan Forgiveness program.

It's doubtful any of these ladies would ever qualify for loan forgiveness.

Probably don’t even need a loan at all.

Exactly but when people are critical of student loan forgiveness know nothing of the qualifications, it's noticeable.

I see where honeychile is coming from to a degree. I get that bad things happen to good people, but if you majored in some bullshit, and then want your loans written off because you can’t find a job, then that’s your fault. It’s not my fault you majored in some bullshit like glass blowing. Tax payers shouldn’t have to foot the bill for dumbasses who majored in some lightweight hobby shit they enjoy that isn’t going to make money.

Most of those that have loans that are being forgiven have already paid back what they borrowed and then some. It’s not like they just took loans out and didn’t pay them back (like many of the people in congress that took out PPP loans during covid). The interest rates and compounding interest makes it almost impossible to pay back some school loans. Many teachers, nurses and other civil servants have benefited from this program. I would think that we, the people, would want to help educators and those in other professions that don’t make a large amount but are very needed in our society? Or maybe I am just not that selfish��*♀️

I agree. But at the same time, I shouldn’t have to “foot the bill” for folks who aren’t paying their fair share of taxes. The same folks getting all bent out of shape about a free handout to others are the same folks getting them daily by not paying their fair share of taxes. And don’t get me started on folks having all these kids they can’t afford to take care of that I also have to pay for.

I doubt these students are taking out loans🙄your statement was ridiculous. Please educate yourself on who is getting their loans forgiven, sheesh.
