Family Balance Sheet
APRIL 11, 2020
We paid off our last non-mortgage debt in September and have since sent that loan’s monthly payment to our mortgage principal.

As God is my witness, it WILL be the year that we pay off the last of our non-mortgage debt. At the time, we had 4 business loans and 1 student loan that were weighing on us, so we created our Debt Freedom Plan. Apply any Found Money to Debt. I’ll apply that money to the debt. Do you want to eliminate debt too?

Was it the times you were flush with money or the times you were dirt poor and had to make do? If you are rock steady on the path to paying down your debts, pay more.

This is our very last non-mortgage loan and we send an extra payment every month as part of our Debt Freedom Plan. I want to challenge myself to rethink our purchases by taking advantage of more cost effective solutions, like borrowing, buying second hand, or just making do with what we already have.
