$850 towards debt!

Posted by with 8 comments | in ,
Today's is a short post, but a good one!

Jordan and I received our tax returns 6 days after we filed them (using e-file)!  The same day we took the money and applied it to our debt.

Jordan put $400 towards the truck loan and I put $450 towards my Canada Student Loan!  It felt so good to put a lump sum on those suckers.

The truck loan is now just cents under $1,100!! My Canada Student Loan is now $1,887 and change - for a total student loan debt of about $7,090!

It feels real good!!
