Michelle's Debt Journal, Date: July 10, 2009
I used to love shopping. And I still love shopping – in fact, I budgeted new clothes last weekend, shopped an awesome sale and spent about $100 on some much needed work clothes.
That was fun. But today I made a $200 payment toward one of my credit cards and I have to be honest. That’s worth more than clothing.
I’m $3,400 closer to my goal of being debt free. I called the bank the other day, I still have about $1,600 left on my car. After that, it’s the $20,000 that I need to pay towards my college loans. So in reality – I will be done paying off my bad debt by the end of this year (by the end of summer? Oh that would be divine. By the end of fall? Likely more plausible.) The total journey will take a little bit longer, but this is a process. And I’m loving this snowball effect.
Happy Friday friends!
