paid mine off last year, but was still having it taken out of my tax, my tax return was AWESOME!!!!!

Its a good feeling being “debt free”  (besides the 300G’s for my home loan smile )

NBG they pay it back at such a small rate and only once you are over a certain salary.

Since Billy is a teacher, she probably isn’t making bucket-loads over than certain salary and therefore only pays back like 10-15% a year from the Hecs debt.

I didn’t go to uni but some of my mates that did are already making quite a bit more than me (not that I’m complaining at my wage lol). Some others that went to uni are making less as well smile
