Well, I am for the most part debt free now, and it feels kind of good. Mid to late last year, with the house and everything, spending went a bit out of control. I make enough, where it was not a big problem, but still annoying. Two things have happened this month.
1. Car paid off. I got a nice new car 3 years ago, and with it I got a 3 year 0% loan. Without this loan, I would have never got the car I wanted, and I would have never had the credit history to get the house I live in now. GMAC, thanks for the credit. I have paid the last payment, and now my car is mine. This is also another $500 a month I do not need to worry about sending to someone. yay!

Today I have sent the final $308.47 off to my credit union (well, transfer). With this, the next statement I get should not have any additional interest. I should be at the point where I can once again pay off the balance in full every month. All in all, I gave the credit union about $500 in interest, but in the grand scheme of things, that is not all that bad.
