    Default Very good day! :)

    So, I just paid off my first loan about a week ago, and snowballed the payment. Today I got my auto insurance renewal notice, and my payment for that has gone down by 80 dollars a month!! I called the loan company and increased my payment again.

    With the two things combined, I've more than doubled the minimum payment...and all of the extra $$ goes toward the principal!
