“My student loan people called me. Said that I am behind on my student loan. In fact, they said I’ve never made a payment, and that they know I did not attend college. Asked me what I did with the money. I said, I bought a nuclear device with it, and I’d really appreciate it if they’d never call me again.”

Heh. I gotta say, I love the student loan system here in New Zealand. The loan is interest free while I’m in New Zealand, and I only have to start making repayments when my income rises about above a set amount. It’s great for people who take time out from the workforce for further study, you don’t have to worry about the loan compounding while you’re not earning.
