Back when COVID started, I was laid off and given a decent severance. We invested it and basically forgot about it for five years. The last few years have gone well for us financially, and even though I hate selling investments, we used the money plus some savings to pay off both loans in full. It feels good knowing those are completely behind us now.
Too bad that forgiveness never happened 😅

if you can sock away severance and forget about it why did you have student loans to begin with? You sound rich to me.
