Couple earning $230,000 buried under nearly $1,000,000 debt at age 29 and 32

“We are $1 million in debt.”

This woman and her husband have a total of just under $1,000,000 in debt, here’s the breakdown.
– Mortgage $210,000
– Student Loans $335,000
– Credit Cards $136,000
– Personal Loans $44,000
– Car Loans $35,000

She is only 29 years old, and her husband is 32 years old.

They both have “advanced degrees”. One in MBA and the other in policy. They both work in the government.

Their household income is $230,000.

I wouldn’t be able to breathe if I had $136K in credit card debt. This is insane. 😭

I really will never understand how people get themselves in these situations.
