Though it is a tough road and my friends and family are still wondering if I'm nuts (I must admit I wonder myself as I go from job to job to job), I can finally see that I may actually be free of student loan debt in early 2013!! I'll definitely update at the next milestone, whatever that is (hopefully soon at $29,000 student loan balance).
