Family Balance Sheet

FEBRUARY 10, 2017

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. However, we have one non-mortgage loan left, the behemoth student loan that I was hoping to pay off in 2016. Oh, and I turned 47 and my husband turned 55 in 2016.

However, we could use a year of extra thriftiness to find any extra funds to accelerate the $10k. 2016 Update. The Guidelines for 2018: 1. Be Exceptionally Frugal. I don’t want to use the term extreme frugality, because that sounds absolutely horrible. Non-necessities might take a back seat–for this year. 2017 Update.
