I have about 50k in student loans. I make 75k a year and am able to pay all my debt and living expenses. Don't have much in savings however as you can imagine. I just got engaged and fiancee doesn't want to marry until I get out of my credit card debt, which will mean about 4-5 years. This is crazy to me. I have already cut my cards and have allowed him full access to my spending, so debt will not increase and only go down. What is wrong with marrying and keeping our finances separate for another 4-5 yrs til I am debt free? He has about 18 k in student loans and about 5k in credit card debt and a 10k medical bill.
