Should I pay off fed student loans or start my investment journey?

Hi! I’m just starting my financial independence journey and I wanted some friendly thoughts on my financial situation. I’m 29, I make $82k annually, and I owe $38k on my federal student loans ($35k being the principal). I’m starting from scratch; so should I tackle my student loans now while payments would go straight to the principal balance, or should I take advantage of investing in my 401k first? I have no house payment or car, no debts really and I want to throw at least half of my take home pay into my investments/paying off debt, if not 60-70% and live off the rest. I’d love to know what your thoughts are. TIA!
