    Default 3 payments to debt free!!!

    I am so excited. By may 25th I will be totally and completely out of debt.

    I used some savings and my tax refund to pay off my engine and I worked out a settlement with the credit card company to pay my debt to them of in the next three months. I am so excited. The car was paid off in Jan as well. Freeing up about $500 a month!!!!

    I am gonna save up for a new heating system now for the house so next winter I can be warm.

    Well done! Stay strong until then!

    lol in my case something blows up. I keep waiting for something bad to happen. Last year it was my engine. I have not been debt free since collage so I am thrilled about it.
