Nah, it is £20,000. It is only £30,000 if you blow it all on alcohol and other things. So unless your sister is crap with money, she should be fine. I know people who were spending like £200 a week on alcohol alone getting tons of debts on various cards while I never went in debt at all except for my student loan. Also, I worked part-time so I can pay a big chunk of it back as well at the end of it. The student loans company also has a really great repaying facility. In fact, it used to be more economically viable to take the loan then stick it into high interesting savings account. But since there is basically no savers interest that sort of disappeared.
