what does this mean? arent you locked into 20 years and 10% of discretionary income? how can an associate pay down early?

what happens if hypothetically you make partner and by year 12 youre crushing it? wouldnt you pay way more than the amount you would have had you just done normal route?

(not a loan mfe)

there is zero upside to ever not doing paye since you can always pay down early on paye

so literally everyone who can do PAYE should do PAYE with no downside? this sounds ridiculous/too good to be true.

i think he means lock in the program so that you start the clock on 20 years, but still prepay more than the minimum

read the MPN

it also limits interest capitalization to 10% of principal, which is less than most people have coming out of LS

You can always pay down loans early, it's written into the MPN.
