Welcome to Debt Free Stories! They paid off $36,000 in debt and cash flowed graduate school. With tuition payments and debt payments we spent about $60,395 between January 2012 and March 2014 when we became completely debt free with two bachelor’s and two master’s degrees between us.

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.
