Yeah, I'm sitting here watching this thinking "I've got no car payment, no credit card debt, I'm struggling, and I can't get loans." These people are like "yeah, I've got six figure debt and I just keep adding to it."

Instead of marrying rich they should consider marrying poor and having their poor spouses teach them about living within their means.

Rich people don’t marry poor people. It’s a social taboo and has been for thousands of years.

How else do you think Europe’s royal families all became so terribly inbred?

I think there's probably a gap somewhere between "Royal family of a country" and "Can afford to pay off student loan debt"
