pay off my student loans (read all 6 entries…)
$38,991.57 2 years ago

I would love to make more than the minimum payment, but I have consumer debt that needs to be taken care of first.

With that said, every time I break a new $1000 mark it feels good. It feels slow, but it feels good to have passed $39,000.

Whenever the consumer debt is paid off I can start making larger payments to the student loans. Oh, it would feel so good to get this debt eliminated.

Makes sense

It definitely makes sense to pay off the consumer debt first. We did it the same way. It seems slow sometimes, but it works: the only debts we have left now are this year’s federal taxes, my student loans (now less than $4k), a home equity loan for a new boiler, and the mortgage.

Now, if we can just keep our eleven-year-old cars running for a few more years… :)
