How to deal with the mountain of debt

 Am I better off paying off my loans as soon as possible or do I let it hang over my head for the next couple decades or do I work in public service and get it paid off for me? I have no clue. When it comes to law school, securing loans are not hard to come by, but the consequences of these loans, some of us will face for a very long time. 

When it comes to joining the workforce, what is most important? A higher paying job to pay off my loans with or a medium paying job in government work that will pay off my loans for me in 10 years? It’s not something that is ever talked about and I really am not sure which way is best. We can’t ask current attorneys about it either because the debt we face are much higher than anything the generation older than us had. A wait and see approach for me it looks like.
