Debt

There is a strange satisfaction that comes from paying off debts. Who knew that paying off past debts would feel so different than it would have felt to have paid it at the time? With our tax return this year we have decided to pay off everything. We will not splurge on the things we want until the things we've already splurged on are gone. Each check I've signed and each POS confirmation number I've recorded has brought us closer to the goal that is now within our reach- Financial Comfort!! As much as we'd love to take a vacation, or have a shopping spree with the same money, we are so happy with our decision. Who knows, maybe there will miraculously be tons of money left in our account when we are done... Oh, dreaming!

  1. Just before we got married DH and I were on a mission to pay off all our credit card debt. It was such an amazing feeling when it was done, and we haven't had any debt (other than mortgage) since!

    Congrats!!
