About Me:

ceejay74

I'm the CFO of a three-adult, two-child, two-cat household. There's me (CJ, age 49), my husband (NT, age 50), my wife (AS, age 44), and our kids AA (age 13) and SL (age 11). The cats are named Whiskey and Clue and they're about 12 years old.

Until July 2007 we hadn't been serious about financial stability, but then we started focusing on paying down our massive debt, building an emergency fund and saving for retirement. In October 2010, we finished paying off all of our credit card debt--over $70,000! Adding in student loans and mortgages, we've paid off more than $250,000 of debt so far. In June 2015, we used a windfall to pay off all our remaining non-home-related debt!

Big picture goals:

Buy a rental property in Minneapolis in 2022

8x income by age 65 OR Coast FIRE by 2031 (tracking retirement in two ways at the moment)

Completely debt-free by age 65 (2039)

Slight progress on 1099 + 555

July 2nd, 2007 at 04:34 pm

Well, I haven't made too much progress in my 1099 + 555 Plan, but a little. Most of my bills are coming soon, so I'll see the needle move more then.

On Friday I paid $200 to my smallest, highest-interest debt, the line of credit on my checking account. Not a scheduled payment, just extra to principal. And today my regular mortgage payment hit, so $282 to principal.

$482 down, $1172 to go by July 26!
