Probably medical degrees etc. However, if I were to do a masters in CS it would be 70k so my total debt would be up to something like 110k. Thus, if I do a masters it will be a cheap US-based one I can cashflow because that's just a stupid amount of debt.

IIRC these were from people who had done multiple degrees before there were limits.

You're probably right - the inflation rates were low for a long time so to get that high from indexation on a 100k loan would be pretty unlikely.
