Oh: I didn't read this properly before voting - a private higher interest loan, yes pay off :( Low interest government issued student loan = not worth it. I've only got one credit card to pay off and am "quietly confident" I can do this soon - I paid off about half the balance, but then oops! bought a laptop! But I can't think of any other high value purchases I'd need to make on it in the next couple of years so by then hopefully it will be all nicely paid off and then the cash from those payments can go nicely into an ISA or what have you (if I can put that much money in an ISA that is, my payments are [voluntarily] really quite high).
