<p>I've talked to students who plan to be $70K in debt for undergrad and hundreds of thousands in debt for medical school. How can you ever get out from under debt like that? I'm not sure it's wise to start out by assuming that you will make tons of money because lots of things can change once you step foot on campus.</p>
