    Default Excel based Snowball Calculator

    Really nice snowball calculator, easy to use.

    Someone linked this on TMMO. It allows balance order, interest rate order, order entered, or custom orders. The second spreadsheet allows you to override the normal snowball, allowing you to track your real progress.

    Enjoy!

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    Thanks! I've totally fallen off the snowball wagon. I put a new plan together with this. Now all I have to do is stick with it.

    Greebo, this is a great calculator, a bit too late for me unfortunately but would have been handy to me a few months ago.

    I had been using a more basic one - it was great motivation to be able to see the dates get clser and closer and less time the more money I found to pay them off quicker.
