"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Im 20 and am going into second year of college. Last year i was awarded some grants because i did not earn enough money, since then i got a raise and made a little extra and now i was only awarded loans. In order to get through this year i will have to talk around 10k - 13 k in loans. After this year i will be applying into nursing school and will require more loans, i want to know what you guys went through. How much loans did you graduate with? Was it difficult to pay off? Any advice that you have for me?

At least with health care you can get a job. Liberal Arts majors have no sympathy for you. They graduate with debt and very few job prospects.

I went to community college for my first 2 years and only had financial aid beginning the 2nd year. Now I'm in my 3rd year at a 4-year institution and the loans should start adding up from now on..
