yeah like if you're going into heavy debt to get a job, it's best not to do things that prevent you from getting said job. Like probably shouldn't be doing med school if you're going to be stealing drugs. that's like a law school person scamming people to try and get rent money

From the OP in the comments: quote:I wouldn't be able to have it expunged although it is dismissed. It's for a violent felony from several years back and not drugs, however, I hope there's still some hope for me somehow.

Maybe he beat someone for drugs, but never got around to taking the drugs he was beating someone for. Watching highly trained people lose the ability to monetize their very valuable and expensive skills will never get old. Lawyers seem to be the best at that, although doctors are pretty good at it too. Doing it before you make dollar one in your field though.

Before we found out it was a violent felony (from several years back? Wtf, did he lie to admissions?), I was going to say it sounded like the 3rd or 4th year pharmacy student I worked with (briefly) while I was 17 or 18. He was obviously (to everyone except my oblivious minor self) abusing amphetamines and "flunked out" before graduating. He'd no-show for a shift, which wasn't really that big a deal since the guy was scheduled 15 hours a month or less and interns were largely useless anyway, then claim he'd slept for like 24 hours straight and had missed it. At the time all I knew was that he needed to get his poo poo together and that it seemed kind of odd that pharmacists would hand me keys to the safe to get what I needed, but they were hesitant to even let this pharmacy student count those drugs. Ah, to be young and dumb again. Now I'm just old and dumb.

You know I'm all about having second chances after paying your debt to society, but I'm pretty sure committing a violent felony is one of those things that should generally disqualify you from being a medical professional. I mean, what with the whole "do no harm" thing and all... But drat $200k in student loan debt, the dude's hosed without an MD/whatever. I'd feel bad if it weren't for the fact that he brought it on himself.

My guess would be that if it was from years back and they still won't let him finish school it's probably a violent sex offence.

Didn't those Mt. Gox depositors actually make out like bandits? Because Buttcoins were still relatively cheap when the exchange closed all the remaining coins are now worth many times the pre-bankruptcy value. Looking it up 850k Buttcoins were lost at about $500 a coin. They found 200k coins which have a current value of 1.8 billion. Even after lawyer and court fees they're looking at a 300% ROI. They also didn't have the opportunity to sell and buy coins at their peak and get a $80k tax bill. Whose laughing now.

First, MtGox is not an online exchange for magic cards, it is an exchange for “magic the gathering online” cards. Second, Mark did nothing wrong. Third, you’re right; the butts left over after the Magic the Gathering Online Exchange crash are now “worth” more than what is owed, which is denominated in USD. Fourth, all customers at MtGox were issued IOUs for their butts, which were subsequently traded, so it is practically impossible to figure out who is owed what. Fifth, once the MtGox coins enters the market it will crash. In conclusion, now is a good time to be long on the LOLchain as there are many LOLs to be mined.

Sixth, it's entirely possible that legally MtGox customers/creditors are owed the value of their butts at the moment of default not what they're worth now. Hopefully the japanese government will use the surplus to destroy anime forever.

Hopefully the japanese government will use the surplus to destroy anime forever. That makes sense. They can't give people the number of coins they lost and it'd be a mess trying to give them a percentage of the remaining value so they'd most likely give them the value of their accounts. Also the Japanese government would use that surplus to create more anime.

what sort of psychopath has a multi-monitor setup at his desk with an air gap between the screens and why is his laptop centered but also below the screens i cannot even begin to think of how the mouse moves between screens in any logical fashion.

My partner just told me she had paid $313,000 in student loans so far in the 5 years since finishing school. She has about $215,000 to go. :vomit: I mean she is a doctor and it will work out long term... But still.

I always expect the X axis of those tuition charts to go back to like the 60s or 70s, but nope, 2005. Is there any point to saving for college for kids anymore? Seems like you might as well be pouring water into the ocean.

Well if you save enough to cover the traditional price of private school you can still send them to one of today's public institutions! Oops, your state just slashed funding again somehow, looks like you're now $120,000 short.
