That's what they are there for. And if a year of food stamps means you a) save up enough to start being able to pay loans back, and b) gets them off your back a while, there is no shame/harm in doing that! You wouldn't be a welfare abuser, but an economic tactician. :)Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18089527435526281951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8381432895790315020.post-25562294812581448282010-01-27T13:05:46.037-07:002010-01-27T13:05:46.037-07:00I have a solution... apply for food stamps.

So together they weren't reliable enough to pay a lower interest rate--it totally made sense for them to be left together on a higher interest rate and be forced to pay significantly more money every month.
