In my country loans are interest free. This makes them easy to pay off with destroying your life. You can also pause payments with no issue.

Sounds like he means work
Loans can’t be free in a capitalist society. No one would offer them.
I presume that anywhere where interest-free loans are offered, they are offered by that country's government. Canada, for example, as of April 1st 2023, offers federal student loans interest-free. Depending on the province, some may not have interest on provincial loans, as well.
That’s the only way it makes any sense.
