Woot, woot! As of this morning, my Personal Loan #1 has been PAID IN FULL! It would have been completed yesterday, but there are send limits with Zelle so I had to split up the payments I was making between different days.
Boy this feels good!
This loan was from a friend last fall in the amount of $2,500. And now it’s paid off.
Personal Loan #2 in the same amount loaned at the same time will be paid in full next month.
I talked to my Dad and told him I would start paying him after these were paid off and he told me to take care of my interest bearing debt first. So I’m going to change my game plan for the fall and winter.
Goals to Pay Consumer Debt:
August – Personal Loan #2
October – CC Wander
November – CC Amazon
January – Dad (new heater for my house in January)
February – CC Frontier
More Realistic
I feel like this is a more realistic plan. And the only thing that might be able to expedite it is if my current large contract goes full time. (We are in talks for this; however, the company needs to grow a bit more before the owner is willing to make that commitment.)Â The great thing is that we are at the end of the initial 6 month period and no end planned.
Life is good. I am so grateful for that.
