Passed the Halfway Point (Student Loans)

[LadyStache]

I made an extra payment on my student loans today and realized I only have 49.9% of the original balance left to repay. The original balance was pretty high and I'm still a few years away from having this completely paid off, but this is a huge milestone for me. :)

Congratulations!

I hit this milestone myself earlier this year. Started at $67K... It's great to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Keep grinding.

Awesome! AND you're fighting against a weaker and weaker tide of interest :-) So in that sense, you're even further ahead than it looks!

Congrats! Thanks for the post. It motivated me to check to see where I stand too. I have also just passed the 50% mark! Only $24,898.60 to go! Let's do this!

That's great news.  Congrats!   

I'll get there too.... someday.

CONGRATULATIONS! What a great feeling! It's just gonna get faster and faster as you pay less and less interest :)

Congrats to you too! Your starting point is my halfway point.
