    Default Sold the motorcycle to pay off truck!

    I had bought the motorcycle last year for a couple thousand with cash I had saved up. Well I sold it for $2800 and took that plus 1200 cash I had and paid off the truck! That was my last debt! Im very excited cant wait to build up my 6 month emergency fund!!! Anybody else sell something to pay off a debt?
