We're happy with our progress. But just over two years into a 30-year loan, we have a long way to go. If we stop making extra principle payments right now, we'll pay off the loan in 17 years. And given the uncertainty of the job market, we aren't counting our chickens before they hatch. But good for you on having your financial house in order!<BR/><BR/>-KateKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017959421018964001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237633934633144064.post-52112929033536244872009-01-29T10:36:00.000-05:002009-01-29T10:36:00.000-05:00My wife and I are in very much the same situation ...My wife and I are in very much the same situation as you and your husband: debt free and only a few dollars left on our mortgage (we'll have it paid off in a couple more years). Only a few hundred dollars on our ever-so-handy credit card. And we pay it off to the penny every month. And in the current economic climate, I'm so very, very glad of this. I hear many horror stories of people caught in financial traps. The frugal life is much better for my peace of mind than trying to live on the financial edge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237633934633144064.post-72911951855707042452009-01-27T13:32:00.000-05:002009-01-27T13:32:00.000-05:00We have our car & home insurances through USAA...We have our car & home insurances through USAA.
