Debt Story

It’s Over, It’s ALL Over! Down Goes Frazier, Down Goes Frazier! I Don’t Believe What I Just Saw!

I am debt free. I am debt free. I am debt free. I AM DEBT FREE!

Check out the chart to the right, and you can see that I have, as of February 06, 2006, paid off every single penny of our debt. I am truly, for the first time in 14 YEARS, debt free. I want to thank every single one of you who have stopped by to read this page and check out my podcast. Your support has meant, and continues to mean, so much. I am so glad that I decided to write this blog. It has provided that little bit of “extra” motivation that I needed to get over the hump and get rid of my debt. Wow… $11510.22 GONE in less than 10 months. Boom.

I hope you have enjoyed reading about my progress. I will have special post up Tuesday or Wednesday, detailing the journey from start to finish. Also, I’ll news about what I plan to do now! (Hmmm… What WILL I do with the time I used to spend thinking about debt re-payment?)

Free at last, free at last, it’s hard to believe but it feels so good, I am Free at last!

Bye, Bye Ford Motor Credit! Bye Bye Chase and Citi! Bye, Bye Credit Card Companies!!! Bye, Bye! Bye, Bye MasterCard and Visa! BYE, BYE!!!

Dork!

Thanks for being here for the ride, and I hope you will continue read the blog.

EDIT: Here is a list of the comments that were left when I originally posted this article, before I moved my site from blogger to my own domain name:

  1. Congratulations! I too will be debt free next week – didn’t do it as fast as you, but I’ve managed to pay off $15K in 24months – and put $15K in the bank – I’m pleased as punch!
