Student loan payment

May 6th, 2008 at 07:22 pm

This posted early! Usually it's not till the 9th or 10th.

$63 toward principal. I recently upped my fixed payment from $71 to $75, figuring my budget would never notice the difference and I'd thank myself later.

So that's $2,666 down, $1,434 to go on my May goal.

A bigger payment should happen this week or next. As soon as our first stimulus check arrives, I'm transferring a big chunk of money to the UK, some of it spending money we saved up for our trip and the rest for bills and debt payment. I'll pay off a small UK balance and throw something at the remaining card (which I hope to pay off by October or earlier). Soon as I pay that sucker off, NT's rental income direct deposits will be enough to cover the remaining UK bills, and I can stop transferring money over there at $50 a pop.

    Your making excellent progress on that debt. Are you still on track for your goals?

    You may want to move the 12/31/2009 goal to 6/30/2009. I know you want to. All you have to do is change the 12 to a 6. Such a little change. Wink

    Merch, you're diabolical! Smile Right now, 12/31/09 still seems impossible; no matter how I track it out I don't see myself finishing until 02/10, and that's my best-case scenario that no big unexpected expenses will happen between now and then. I promise: As soon as 12/09 seems feasible, I will bump my goal up a few months (I don't know about June though!!)
