I wouldn't have credit if it weren't for my student loan payments. Paying them on time helped establish and maintain my good credit score.
I consider my education a worthwhile investment--aka "good debt." Yes, my SO and I will have student loan payments after we're all done with our schooling, but we'll also have considerably more earning power than we would have if we hadn't gone to university.
