the wsj is starting to get concerned about my wapo links. this was from a sidebar of something linked earlier. photos of people with significant debt

shown in their homes. it's not so powerful, headline writer; but it is interesting to me.

so many of these folks, and those on the actual site they're from that's linked in the story, have loads of student loans for degrees that don't usually go along with very lucrative careers. not judging (and none of these people are outright seeking sympathy, that I saw) more wondering if they really considered the ongoing impact on their lives post-school when they were making the choices they did.

I'm also interested that none of the photos in the story, nor several more I clicked, show hoarders, nor other people who get into big debt for loads of non-necessities. (my family has more than one person who falls into this area.) maybe those groups are tougher to get to consent to photograph taking.
