So my husband is a physician, so he's got a really good income, but he also has almost $500,000

of student loan debt. We've been married three years, so I kind of married into his debt.

And as such, we're not sure if now is even an

acceptable time to be considering buying a couple of new to us used cars. Right now, he works

out of state and will for the foreseeable future. So he's gone 50% of the time, and I'm here with all the kids. Last week, two of our

vehicles were broken down at the same time, so I had no transportation. So I was just, we're looking

to spend maybe a total of 40,000 on a van and a sedan and just don't know if we're still

supposed to be driving clunkers because of that massive student loan debt.

Are we attacking the massive student loan debt?

Probably not as fiercely as you would like, which has, and not as seriously as I would like either,

because this is a second marriage for both of us.

We've both had to kind of adjust our financial views a little bit, a little give and take.

And so I'm more gung-ho than he is, but at the same time, we are still paying them off.

We've paid off 100,000 of them in the past two years.

So we're bringing home a little over 18,000 a month.

You should be bringing home more than that.

Your taxes aren't you? It's about 19,000. Yeah. should be bringing home more than that.

Your taxes aren't... It's about...
