Mine are at $350 per month. The pause has been great over the past two years. Between Mrs TWM and me, we are saving more than $500 per month. We have paid off stuff and even bought a home. We have requested deferments in advance to buy us more time to pay off the last of our other big payments. After that, we should be able to handle the student loans. Although, we'd also be in a position to start paying them off early.

I agree that they are, like the Federal Reserve, in a box. Once they resume charging student loans, the economy will take a hit. The worst thing is that the money is non-productive.
