Student loans. Debt.

Just want to ask for some opinions here. I don’t mean to brag but I recently finished university and I am wondering, would you recommend paying off your student loan debt asap or delay repaying it for as long as possible? This year's inflation rate was much lower than usual and I am predicting next years will also be low because of the pandemic. My dilemma is, I wonder if there are other things I could put my money to better use to. Thoughts?

Pay it off.

Sallie Mae makes it REAL easy to defer, and they will happily charge you fees for that. They will roll it into your balance, and keep charging you interest day after day, year after year. Then you will shocked to see your balance has ballooned and you owe more money than you thought possible.

It will take longer than you think, so get it done, now, while you have the money.
