I am about to start taking my first DPT classes on Tuesday and I cannot get this thought out of my head about the astronomical debt that I'm about to accrue - a little over $140,000. To any current PT's out there or anyone with relevant experience with this, do any of you live comfortably with your salary and debt from school (house, car, family, savings, disposable income, maybe a couple small vacations a year) or at least have plans for this type of lifestyle?
Believe me, I really look forward to the opportunities presented to me by the profession, but I also feel like I'm about to sign my life away to federal debt. Coupled with the fact that I'm about to leave home for the first time and start living and paying for everything on my own, I'm having serious doubts. How did you make it through this fear - if you ever did?
