  1. I don’t feel bad for students that lose 150k. I had to work 2 PT jobs while going to school, no time and no money to be scammed

    1. This makes absolutely sense and you have over ten likes for what? Stop doing drugs and stop missing the point of the segment you sad lowborn bottom feeder.

    2. You want a medal or something. Why are you on here distracting from the issue being presented like you work for the entertainment industry?

  2. If a student has that much coin, then they should have the common sense to hold onto it.
    Clearly we are importing the dimdims of the world to attend our schools.
    I just hope the University sees this and ups their tuition costs since they have so much to throw away.
    Then deport for being stupid.
    We have enough stupid here already.

      Only if they had to earn it, not if they got from their parents or Twitch or something; those come with no learning or sense. 🤷
