Where have you been? The student loan forgiveness program was already shut down by the courts and will be again.

I am referring to the not for profit loans vs those sketchy for profit schools.

Most of the student loan forgiveness was for prior payments which had not been properly credited. The winner would still have to make 10 years of timely payments.

Why should taxpayers pay for that debt forgiveness

She called her mother to tell her that she won. It was her mother who was skeptical about it. I would just continue to make payments on the student loan. Maybe get a few payments ahead. If Harris gets in she will continue all of Joe's policies and that includes knocking off at least 10k worth of the loan.

I actually believe this beginner's luck story for a change, because the winner is young and she called her mom for help. Billybucks, you must be joking about the loan forgiveness

Absolutely terrible financial advice. Not happening.

A college degree is a great investment but some people are not college material.

She sounds like a smart and responsible young woman who pays her debts.

Some college overcharging her for tuition is not what I call a good thing to use the money for. Let that student loan she took out fester and hope that student loan forgiveness is enacted.

Beginner's luck I guess.

Congratulations to the winner.

It's good she is using part of the money for her college tuition. Not only that, she has a great lottery story to tell for the rest of her life

Only a sore loser would be upset at a new player winning. A longer length of time playing does not make you more entitled to win.

Glad for her win.

The KY Lottery several instant games on their app and website and player can wager from 2 cents to $50. Some games have rolling jackpots and other have fixed jackpots. Currently one game has a $3.86 million jackpot.

All the drawn games can be played using the app and website too. Eventually all lotteries will offer Online play and maybe laws will change and it will be offered outside state borders.
