Ouch yeah that'd be a millstone. Mine, thankfully, has the interest written off so I've been happily whittling it away for a few years and am now halfway through. As of 2006 our student loans have their interest written off provided you stay in NZ, after a certain amount of time overseas the interest will kick in. I think it's over a year as I spent a year in Australia and never incurred anything extra.
