What's stopping me from taking out fat loans to invest with

Barely, you'd need to invest thousands just to earn 100 bucks a month from blue chip dividends, how much you do you think the bank would give you?

>bank
There are other sources of capital

wont work because the interest rate will be higher than your returns

>>1845798
Did anyone say there were not?

>current rate on my student loan is 3%
>market grows on average 10% a year
Hmmm

>>1845858
>>current rate on my student loan is 3%
Can you take out a 200 grand student loan for 3% interest rate?

>>1845858
It's more like 6% or 7% long-term, and the sigma is a doozy

>>1845858
>>market grows on average 10% a year

HOHO! HOPE YOU DON'T GET ONE OF THOSE -50% YEARS, BANK GET A LITTLE ONEROUS SERVICING THAT DEBT, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT WILL BE IMMEDIATELY CALLED IN THE EVENT OF AN ECONOMIC DOWNTURN

OTHER THAN THAT WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG

this is how corporate loan companies work basically.

so there isn't anything stopping you from doing so, besides maybe the bank not agreeing to giving you the loan.

Also you have to beat inflation + the interest rate set on the loan, which isn't always easy.

federal max is like 31k, after that its private loans and i think they run a tighter ship

People do that all the time it's called leverage.
