100% AW: Debt Payoff

I can officially say that every single debt we have is paid off!!!!!! No more student loans! No more car payments! No more mortgage!

Tonight we will officially shade in the rest of our debt payoff chart, and we have already been in contact with the team at Dave Ramseys' studio to get on the schedule to do our Debt Free Scream live on the air.  

Starting debt total of $127,319.50  all gone!

    It is.  I can't even explain it.  We paid the house off on Wednesday, and H mowed the lawn last night.  He came in telling me that it felt different mowing the lawn of a house that is all ours.  No worry of a bank taking it away, ever!

  • Congrats! Now that you have no debt and less bills to pay, what are your future financial goals?
    Right now we have some smaller financial goals.  Since we've been living very frugal for the past 5 years, we're going to upgrade some things in the house.  First up is a new mattress.  Soon after will be insulating and heating the garage so it helps the heat in the rooms connected to it.  There are so many $2-3k projects we have been avoiding while doing this, so those are our first goals.  
    Larger, long term goal right now is to eventually move out to the country and pay cash for that house.  We're talking at least another $150-200k than what our current home is worth, so it's going to take quite the saving but we refuse to buy unless we have the cash for it.  No mortgage ever again!

  • And I will definitely keep everyone posted on when we're doing our debt free scream.  It's so weird to be receiving a personal e-mail and phone call from Kelly Daniels herself.  No wonder that company is so successful, their staff treats you like they've known you for years.  It's been very surreal getting this set up, and going through the process of being chosen to go on air.
