We finally made it! We are 100% completely DEBT FREE, as of August 8, 2011!! It's been a long road - but through sacrifice, communication, determination and taking on as much extra work as we possibly could, we paid off about $52,000 in 26 months!!
I've been thinking about how I want to summarize this experience ~ but my husband did such a great job doing so on his new blog so I'll let you read his. But I will say, I am very much looking forward to finally moving on in life, and always doing so while applying the principals we've learned from Financial Peace University, which has immensely affected our lives, and I hope it shows.
What's also exciting to me is the ability to share our achievement, that hopefully it will encourage others that it can be done in a very real and effective way, no matter how big the numbers may seem. Living the way our society tells us to live in many financial aspects is really kind of a scam, that most of us are unaware of unless you actually assess the numbers associated with it.
"Be not conformed to the traditions of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Rom 12:2
"Owe nothing to anyone, except for your obligation to love one another." Rom 13:8
I'm very excited to employ these ideas into my life, and I can't wait to see how much fun it will be :•)
