AWESOME! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
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!"

How much we enjoy what we have is more important than how much we have. Life is full of people who have more than they know what to do with, but cannot be content. It is the capacity to enjoy life that brings contentment.---Unknown

all I know is a lady who works with my fiance is having a mortgage burning party.
So its a pulled pork only party. ( they are the easiest and good money and I don't have to cook everything) He won't have to haul the biig smoker with the truck either).Last edited by Holly; 08-25-2008 at 11:24 AM.

Sorry I guess I should have worded it different.
We book a party to do a BBQ for some people who are having a mortgage burning party.
Some people are getting mortgage free in this weird economy...
