Everyone can kiss my ***! 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.

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?

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 *** and don't waste money). Tonight I will crack open the Southern Comfort and celebrate!
