I'm grateful for having our own parliament in Scotland that provide free uni education for Scottish students, my first 4 years of undergrad were paid for then anything after that's on you (although even the cost is significantly less compared to England)
That was a main reason I've applied for the University of Aberdeen for my obligatory semester abroad. At the end of the day I got a scholarship for NTU (Nottingham) and went there.

@sabergirl a billionaire, an ordinary citizen and an immigrant are sitting at a table with 10 cookies. The billionaire takes 9 cookies and says to the ordinary citizen: Watch out or the immigrant will take your cookie.

Just read through the posts in this thread about student loan payments. I just started a new job at a big university here in Nashville in the medical field. I believe that full time employees get free or very discounted tuition for themselves and their immediate family. I can hold out for another 8 years until my oldest is college-aged and get some good free education! My in-laws did FL pre-paid education for my wife to attend FSU, and I took my damn time paying for college out of pocket semester by semester until I got my bachelor's (took about 9 years) but we are both college-educated and free of student loans. So stoked to work for a university that offers programs for employees and their families!

Just wanted to thank the IH crew for a very fast turnaround on my hemming. Parcel sent on Monday at around 8:45. 11:00am Friday done, delivered and wearing them! (Excuse the footwear, home off work with the flu)
Also a belated thanks to the IH crew for double checking both the sizing and the changed delivery address on a recent ReLoved purchase. Much appreciated!

@Chap I tried my first persimmon last year from a local co-op market. Loved the two varieties I tried. The ones pictured look amazing.

Oh great looks like they became quite popular. I saw them when I was in Japan for the first time. Now they are also available in supermarkets in Austria. But they usually harvest them too early and you need to give them some time to get soft and ripe. In Japan unripe fruits are also used as a dye.
