I tried to set up payment plans on my student loans, but they wanted astronomical down payments that I didn’t have. I let my loans default until they required wage garnishments. They take 15% of my salary. For a while I had two separate garnishments, one to Wells Fargo and another to Texas Guaranteed. Wells Fargo is now paid off. Now $622 comes out of my check monthly. I still owe over $13k. They also take my income tax refund each year.
