be debt-free

i wish i could be debt-free. i’ve pretty much stuck in mountain of credit card debt, and i have no idea how to get rid of them. and plus i have all these bills to pay, which doesn’t help me with my mountain of debt. how do i get out of this? i’ve stopped buying stuff, i’ve stopped eating at restaurants, and im even trying to save like ten bucks a day so that i have money to survive… help….

I resolve to pay off all debt; excepting car, house, and student loans – by January 1, 2011.

I payed off my two stafford loans today! I’m now $2,680 closer to being debt free. I still have about 16K in student loans, but I’m hoping to have that payed off by the two year mark at my nanny job by the first of August ‘09

So, I sent off the payment that satisfies the debt I had directly to my college. The damage: $8,091.54! It quite nearly cleaned me out, but it’s good to have that resolved. I still owe aprox. 20k in student loans to wells fargo, but that’ll come. yay for working toward a debt-free state of being!

It’s official. I put myself through NYU, own a used car that runs like a champ, and have a zero balance on my credit cards. I am debt-free and loving it!

I made my last student loan payment this month, paid off my credit card and sent a check to my mother-in-law for some stuff she bought for the wedding back in June. I’m just waiting for it all to clear the bank, so that I can see the statements with a big, lovely 0 on the “balance due” line. I’m pretty much broke now, but I won’t owe anyone a red cent :)

I had to leverage myself up while in school. Now I’ve got a strong career and it’s time to pay off those revolving debts.

Student loans don’t count; I need to hang onto them because the rates are lower than the comparable returns I could get on the money. What counts is anything above 6%. I want that stuff gone in three years, by my 30th birthday.

This won’t be happening for a very long time as I will be taking out a lot in student loans. Oh well.

We are slowly paying them off…We have paid off 3 things. Only
3 more to go, oh and student loans, urgh

i’ve set myself an overall five-year goal for this, though what i’d really like is to have my credit card debt paid off in one year.
