Currently 24, making 56k/year with about 90k in student loans. My job is with the public sector so I qualify for loan forgiveness if I stay here for 10 years while I make payments.
Currently, my plan is to make out my 457 with my employer, investing about 18k per year. This also reduces my gross income, which in turn makes my loan payments less and thus will let more be forgiven.
I’m wondering peoples opinions on this, am I on the right track or should I focus on just straight paying off loans?
Also note - I have an emergency fund and can allocate for any future expenses/bills, just wondering about what I should do when it comes to investing / loans.
