actually the more you earn the less you pay, as you're paying it back quicker => less interest. I still don't understand what bonuses have got to do with it, they're just another bit of your pay.That's not the point I'm making. I'm fully aware of the terms of student loans and I'm happy with them. I'm just trying to emphasize that it's not free money you are given like the attitude of many implies (i.e. the OP), there are numerous drawbacks compared to a traditional loan (fixed repayment) in the sense that the more you earn the more you pay and thus this is reflected in bonuses.
And the drawbacks compared to a normal loan if they are drawbacks are miniscule compared to the difference in interest rate. It is still the cheapest money you'll easily borrow.
