Family Balance Sheet

SEPTEMBER 9, 2014

My husband is a software QA engineer and until last week I was a web content administrator. We paid off over $147,000 in debt (actually way over that amount, if you want to count a $210,000 rental property that I sold at a slight loss.) But it wasn’t a decade of nothing but paying off debt.

We paid off $68,000 of debt in eight months. The debt included about $30,000 in student loans, some medical debt, IRS debt, and a small amount on a credit card. What inspired you to get debt free? Did you follow a particular debt freedom plan or book, such as Dave Ramsey or Debt-Proof Living?

Firstly, I was offered a better-paid job but needed a vehicle to get there, so I took out a loan to buy one. At the same time my credit card debt was slowly creeping upward too thanks to my minimal income. I was earning more each year and the debt I was carrying was covered each month without too much worry.
