I wonder if taking out a student loan puts people in a mindset where they are more willing to take on debt?

If you're already borrowing some thousands of $ for an education on the basis that you will "make it back when I graduate" what's a few more hundred $ for an iphone?

That was my mindset when, after college, I got my first credit cards. What's another thousand bucks on top of 30k?
