Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 18, 2019

Happy New Year’s 2019: In January 2019, we were down to one final non-mortgage loan, so we created just one financial goal for the year—-to pay off that last non-mortgage debt by December. When that loan was paid off, we put that full amount towards the third loan and this continued until September 2019.

Yet after listening to Dave’s approach, I knew I didn’t want to be anybody’s slave and if I was being honest with myself, the total amount of debt payments we made every month was ridiculous. There were a lot more fun and purposeful things we could have done with that money than pay the lender. Pay Off Mortgage Debt.

They pay off mountains of debt and scream about debt freedom, or maybe they save gobs of money in a record amount of time, or they have considerable success with their new small business. Jessi and her husband paid off her student loans. Shannon and her husband paid off $22,000 in nine months.

We’re going to give it everything we’ve got and hopefully pay off the last of our non-mortgage debt by the end of this year. It will be quite a feat because by my calculations we’ll be short each month if we just apply our debt snowball payment. Paying off debt is not fun, in fact, it sucks!

Today’s Debt Free Story is from Carrie. It took just over a year (14 months to be exact) before I paid off all my debts and became debt free! I was only bringing home a net income of $3,000 a month, so paying $1,000 each month towards my debt was a lot of money, and took a lot of sacrificing.
