Regarding student loan debt stories involving death, sex, and money. Death could be symbolically related as the heavy debt might feel like a 'death' of dreams or future opportunities. Sexually, people may have different attitudes. Some might be more cautious about sexual relationships as they don't want to add more financial responsibilities. Money is the key factor. Student loan debt restricts the amount of money one can use for other aspects of life. It can delay savings for retirement, buying a car, or traveling, which are all aspects related to a fulfilling life.
