student loan killer

I went back to school at 55 to get an advance degree and I got a MFA so I could teach and get retirement. After nine years and two months I was relaesed just eight months from being vested for retirement Now I have been out of work almost a year living on 1000 a month social securty and they want me to pay 500 a month on the student loan what am I saposed to live on? I need some kind of out. I am 70 and can not get a position now I have tried. The student loan at this point will never be paid any way and I need a way out. Topic: Share Your Story
