SoloMio,

The parents of the people in the other countries carry the entire load of the education. They live on a lot less than we do here. They don't have 4 DVD players, 3 large-screen LCD TVs, a couple of XBoxes, etc...

They don't have running water all day, nor a stable electric supply. They don't have 3 cars in the garage. Most make do with a scooter.

They live in those conditions and save, save, save to educate their children.

You can make similar sacrifices to make sure your kids get out of Med. School with as small a debt as possible.

Just a small bit of perspective.
