Last night, Mr Cacoupondiva and I were discussing...savings, and he brought up in my last entry I didn't mention that while we were savings, we paid off debt and in 2008 he took a job with a pay raise.
We paid off my student loan ($12k in total) in 2009. We paid as much as we could afford in addition to the minimum payment due each month. We used some of our tax refund in 2009 to pay off the final balance.
We have also paid off all of our credit card debt. At this point, the only revolving debt that we have is my car payment, and with some careful planning, we'll have it paid off my this time next year.
It's all about baby steps!
