Assuming someone opened a large international development NGO there that was willing to pay me my same salary, of course. @The Dauphine If my student loan payments were covered I could easily afford to buy a house in Kansas.

I guess it worked out OK for them. Seriously, though, I'd be real interested to see an economic analysis of the ROI on this. My gut tells me it's probably a good public investment.

I mean, obviously not having to make student loan payments for a few years would free up some cash, but <i>Roots and Wings </i> okay.
