My debt payoff- updated!



The last time I updated this, I owed $12,333.78 on the student loan. As of today, the current balance owed is $11,899.22! I am happy that it has fallen below the $12,000 mark!

I got paid a quarterly bonus and put most of it towards the student loan. Also, I have paid off the Home Depot Credit Card that had 0% for 12 months before the promotional period expired.

Ultimately, I’d like to pay off this student loan before the year is over, but that seems like a pretty hefty goal, so I’m going to go with 2 years, or 24 months to have it paid off.

My Plan to Pay off Debt

$12,333.78. That is currently the amount that we owe on a student loan. This is our only “unsecured debt”, and I’d like to get this paid off as soon as possible. My ultimate goal to pay this off in a year, but I am not sure how well that’s going to work out.

Reading different articles says to not worry about paying off student loans, but for me, the peace of mind knowing we don’t owe as much (or any!) is worth it for me.

This is the amount of debt I will be focusing on eliminating. Any money I earn online, whether it be from eBay sales, survey sites, or whatever, I will be putting towards this. I will keep this amount updated to show what I have paid off!
