One thing I've been sore about is not having had broad liberal arts
undergrad education. My plan is to get a full-time teaching job in social
studies, use the vacations and weekends to read up on philosophy, history,
literature and economics.

If I marry another teacher, and also find part-time jobs, there should be
enough household income to pay off the student loans. I can also
review/hone my trading skills and go back to trading once I save enough
money.
