Killed Student Loans!
« on: March 09, 2016, 09:02:15 AM »
We did it... we finally pulled the trigger and KILLED last piece of it yesterday! All of it!... All $75K between my hubbs and I over the last few years.
Thanks to this incredible community of frugal minds that planted this idea of living debt free in our heads.
Something we once thought was impossible became our reality yesterday! And let me tell you - it feels A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!! Absolutely and incredibly AWESOME!!!
Thanks again, Mustashians, for all the advice and inspiration that we found on this forum!
On to the new adventure!.. Yes, mortgage, buckle up - you are next! :)

Thank you thank you thank you for posting this! It is so great to see that the euphoric feeling I imagine having when I pay my loans off is real! Congratulations to you both!

Congrats! That is awesome! We are on pace to have ours paid off by late summer or early fall. It is so close we can practically taste it and I can't wait to experience the feeling. Enjoy it, and I will live vicariously through you for now.

Congrats! I am still working towards my journey to beat my student loans. I am down to under 30K and it feels like I am getting close. I started at 78K :)
