Congrats Velvet! That is one hell of an accomplishment. Seriously, our growing personal, corporate, and governmental debt has very dark implications for the future of our economy. I just read a figure in the journal about how average personal savings have gone from 10% of total income to a mere 0.2% in the last four or five years. It's downright scary.
I applaud anyone and everyone serious enough to realize good fiscal responsibility. Paying that off must feel so good and light! Like a huge weight off your shoulders.
Congrats again, and thank YOU, because together, collectively, we all contribute to the financial health and well being of our economy, which in turn affects everyone else.
