contribute to unmatched 401k? Meaning, should I try pay as much as possible per month to pay off my student loans, or should I try to put the maximum in my 401K (which is not matched at all by my employer)?

Put it this way... If I offered you an investment that offered a GUARANTEED 7.62% return, would you take it? or would you take on a lot more risk to get about 1-3% more in the long run?
And isn't the peace of mind of being debt-free worth something?
