    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    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!"

    In the old days people would have a party inviting family, neighbors and friends and in front of all burn the bank mortgage.
    People would be happy for you, and it would encourage them to continue on their path to paying off their mortgage.

    Of course these days if you tried to have such a party, I'm not sure how people would react. That you were bragging beyond belief, rubbing it in their faces, jealous, total disbelief, must have had an inheritance? Not sure.
    But it seems like the goal of paying off the mortgage has been lost on the current generation.

    So you'll just have to have your party here! I hope to have my own in a few years.

    Congratulations!!
