They will have more opportunities to attend the school of their choice, and more opportunities to spend their future income in a way that is meaningful to them, rather then focusing on repaying loans.

Politics can bring out strong emotions and biases, but investors would be wise to tune out the noise and focus on the long term. If you’re nervous about the markets in 2020, you’re not alone. Presidential candidates often draw attention to the country’s problems, and campaigns tend to amplify negative messages. It’s no wonder that as an investor you may start feeling a little pessimistic too . . .
