I now owe $29,318 on my student loans!! Student Loan Debt: $61,762::::$29,318. Student Loan Debt: $61,762::::$39,070. So here's the dilemma: I find that with the current stock market (which is doing pretty well, all things considered) I could sell ALL of my stock and pay off ALL of my remaining student loan balance.

I'm working a LOT but am also making a nice dent in my student loan debt, though I've still got quite a ways to go. About 20% of my payments are going to service interest only right now, so that's a bit frustrating, but that number will also decrease as my balance goes down.

I've made a dent in my student loan debt, though it has come at the cost of my mortgage debt, unfortunately. Even so, I'm happy with the progress I've made and am excited to watch my student loan debt decrease even more quickly in 2012. We we begin the new year, I wanted to update my debt repayment status.

My student loans are now down to $39,071 !!!! What that means, though, is that I'll have to pay at least $3,000 per month towards my student loans for the rest of the year. The difference is that she is not willing to work more hours to make a dent in her student loans - she is deferring right now. However, I have some news!

In this case, I'm questioning whether I should pay off my second mortgage first, or wait on that and pay towards my student loan instead. Meanwhile, I could be working on that student loan, almost half of which may be paid off by the generous gift of a family member. At which time I may be able to sell my house and just break even.

It's been quite a year; I have a total of four jobs (one full time, three part time) and am beginning to make a dent in my student loan debt. Pay down my second mortgage to such a degree that I can sell my home in the spring of 2012: I changed my tactic on this - instead, I am focusing on my student loan debt.

The student loan has finally been paid off - in full! To those of you with outstanding student loan, credit card, or other debt: You Can Do It! I sold $20,000 of stock in December (having worked out the capital gains tax hit beforehand) and sent my last payment to the U.S. Department of Education this week!
