How did Barack Obama pay for Harvard Law School?
After law school, he worked as a civil rights attorney at a small law firm, and was a professor at the University of Chicago School of Law. He was probably able to pay back most of his loans with the money he made in both of those jobs. In addition, he made millions of dollars in royalties from both of his books (both of which were bestsellers), allowing him to easily pay back whatever balance remained on his student loans.
