I got paid today. I looked at my bills and expenses. I thought about my options. I made a decision.
I just made a payment to retire my student debt. Done. Gone. A part of which dates to 1989. Over.
Oh, and I also bought something nifty today. (With cash, of course.) More about that tomorrow.

That’s awesome! Rock on! Being out of debt is the only way to go… paying for something… especially a big something… with cash is empowering. (At least, it is to me.)

At which point I will fly down to DC and buy us both a fabulous meal. No, wait. Strike that. We’re both losing weight that we want to keep off. Okay… we’ll go SHOE SHOPPING for me and techno-gadget shopping for you! Or there’s always the bookstore at that seminary in Virginia…
