If any of y'all heard some angels singing earlier, it was prompted by me signing off on the final student loan payment I will make in this life. Sallie Mae, you can kiss my flabby white ass, I am no longer your little bitch! I logged in to check my account and the payoff amount was well within my budget so off it went, wheeee!

I feel rather like Frodo having just rid myself of the ring, I can see colors, smell flowers, taste food again. Glory hallelujah!

Once I pay my car off that's it, no more debt, and gods willing, never again.

Hey, good for you! I'd say we should go out for dinner this weekend to celebrate, but I dunno that there's anywhere that won't make you feel stomachfully worse.

Congratulations! Few things feel as good as getting free of debt, (well.. many things feel as good or better.. but it's still a reason to celebrate!)

YES! Yes yes yes!! Congratulations!

(The closest I've come to that sense of satisfaction was when I used check #666 to pay off a credit card ... but it's so not the same.)

Thanks. I'm just hoping medical bills don't put me right back into it :(

LOL, that is a good one, though. I'm looking forward to making it that far in my current check system.

Yay, congratulations!

I take great joy in reaching major financial goals like this. Paying off the credit cards, which had enjoyed my extended unemployment far more than I had, was a joyous day.

Step 3: Profit!

I'm really looking forward to Step 3, and it does feel *so* good to finally have paid off my Masters degree...with which I did so very little...

Woo! (So no buying a house for you? Or only with cash?)

A house? Out here? Are you mad?

That was kinda my question too... there's always "non-house" housing like condos in which to live and on which to pay mortgage(s)...

No equity for Ellie? /B-,
