  3. What to do if you can’t pay your student loan in Canada: The average borrower takes between nine and 15 years to fully pay off their student loan, with the average debt post-graduation being $16,727 for university grads, $10,172 for college grads and $29,000 for doctoral.
  4. 5 leading causes of financial problems (and what to do about them): Most people incorrectly assume that the cause of financial problems is living an overly lavish lifestyle, but this is simply not the truth.
