WE’RE DEBT FREE!!!!!

Nelnet Paid-in-Full

As of about a month ago, our last loan is paid-in-full, and we are completely debt free besides our mortgage! Praise God! It’s been a long road, and we give God ALL the glory for his amazing provision in times of plenty and times of want. We often use the phrase “Jehovah Jireh” around here!

We estimate that we paid off approximately $70,000 in the last three-ish years on a single income. And to celebrate, we are leading a Financial Peace University class at our church, starting this Tuesday.

WOO-HOO!

A “Dear Sallie” Letter…

June 10, 2010 By 7 Comments

Dear Sallie Mae,

It’s been a long, 10-year journey with you. At first, I felt like you were carrying me through my college years. You made me feel like I could do anything I wanted to do. All I had to do was sign the dotted line!

Then after a while, I realized I was carrying you! And boy, were you heavy!

Well, it’s $17,051.36 (plus interest) later, and I am officially breaking up with you. I do not need you in my life, and I never want to hear from you again.

Lacey
