Everyone can kiss my ass! I'm debt free!!!
 
Just paid off the Lava Orange Mazdaspeed Miata 10 minutes ago. Not exactly sure why you guys are the first people to know this???

Anyway, house was paid off about 6 months ago and it is all gravy from here on out.

Congrats, man... I'm on the same path, just $23K to go!! *Seething in jealous envy*

You're a fucken dick. Just kidding. Actually, you're the man. I owe about $150,000 on my home and property, but all my vehicles are paid for. Next year I am getting married in July with a ritzy pricy wedding. How about you upload pics of your car?

Trying to sell my Miata partially to lose the car payment, and partially cause I want to build a kit.

That'll leave us with just a house payment.

This is me being forlorn for not paying off house when I had a chance...and buying a lakehouse. http://www.smileyshut.com/smileys/ne...ing-baby-1.gif Stupid. stupid, stupid.

Being debt free is a liberating feeling. Sincere congratulations.

No he didn't.


You helped, I helped, every member of the tax paying community helped. He didn't pay shit, not even a thin dime. Guaranteed. Bet you lunch! :fawk:

Congratulations. My only debt is my mortgage which will be paid in full in 1.5 years.

Qckslvr 09-11-2009 05:46 PM

Congrats :D

15 more years on mortgage, and I will be debt free as well. Seriously looking to sell though and go back to renting.

Details:
42 years old, same job for 20 years, $60K salary, wife stays at home and doesn't work, no kids.

1999 - $125,000 in credit card debt (financed a business via 20 credit cards) and $40,000 in mortgage (cheap house)

2003 - $185,000 mortgage (credit card debt paid off when I sold the business) on a larger house and $20,000 truck loan

So, 10.5 years of struggle. Paid the new house off in 6 years. We live well within our means. No movies, no dinner, not much in the way of bling. I wear jeans and a t-shirt every day. I drive a $1500 Geo Metro. My wife does not work but "owns" the 2005 MX5 and 2006 Toyota Tacoma. We will keep the vehicles until they fall apart. She gets a few nice vehicles but only owns 3 pairs of shoes and isn't the typical high maintenance woman. We pay $10 a month for cell phone service and, until a couple of weeks ago, $15 a month for basic cable. We worked hard to get to this point and are good examples of when Dave Ramsey says "people think you're weird" (because you are a cheap ass and don't waste money). Tonight I will crack open the Southern Comfort and celebrate!

We got married by a Justice of the Peace (I think it was $45 or so), ate at Huddle House and stayed in a Motel 8 on our wedding night. After 18 years my wife still does not have a diamond on her finger (we both wear $50 wedding bands). We have never purchased each other anniversary presents (or Christmas, Valentines Day, Birthday, etc). DO NOT get your wife started thinking that fancy things make a good marriage. I've got some friends who are getting divorced after less than 2 years. He took her on all kinds of cruises, bought a $3000 engagement ring, gives her everything she wants. My wife knows she can have everything she wants but she just doesn't want anything (except for a Lava Orange MSM).
