Little did I know when I started this blog in January of 2008 that I would learn so much and come so far in my struggle to overcome my debt and control my spending. With that said, here are my goals for 2011: Attempt to double my income (from roughly $40,000 from the day job to $80,000 including all of my part time and full time income.

My goal is to pay my loans down to $20,000 by the end of the year (an ambitious goal, for sure) so in January I can sell my stock and pay it all off once and for all! I started the year at around $49,300 so I think I'm doing well for being five months into the year. Student Loan Debt: $61,762::::$39,070.

As I reflect back to January 2016, I started that year pretty determined to pay off the balance of our non-mortgage debts. And we were on a roll in January 2016. Unfortunately, we did not hit that goal and in part, have made some major changes to our Debt Freedom Plan. I even created a hashtag, #crushingdebt2016.
