After two years in post secondary education, Peter Mason feels that he can no longer continue due to inadequate grades. He has been living off of student loans while in school but now can’t afford to pay back the loans with his minimum wage job. What should he do?

You can attempt to cut back on monthly expenses to save up some extra cash, but if that is too difficult, you may have to research other options.
