I paid off grad school loans last month. That felt decent.


Aug 13, 2020, 2:06 PM

I cannot imagine what no mortgage feels like.

That's awesome, congrats

krzywife and I were discussing if we wanted to do that or not. We're also looking at buying a property in the mountains instead.

i paid off my house the first time after 5 years


Aug 13, 2020, 5:04 PM [ in reply to lulz at Henry TU this post. ]

then acquired 4 more houses all paid for against mine
selling 2 of those to pay mine back off and will still have 2 slum lord properties

badge-donor-20yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I see being in this house a while, but I don't


Aug 13, 2020, 4:26 PM [ in reply to at your age??? ]

see being in this house for retirement. Who knows, maybe a $10k a year raise will come my way someday and I can pay it off in a hurry.


Also, that is the face I make but is better than renting.

You read about them in books of magic and mythology, but never would you think you'd see it with your own eyes.

You have caused me the sin of envy, good sir.

about 8 more years left for this ol boy.


Aug 13, 2020, 3:19 PM

Best part is wife thinks we have over 10 years left. There's 2 years where I can live like a king.

I have about 10 years left but I am 58


Aug 13, 2020, 4:39 PM

which means I'm an idiot. I can work as long as I am able, but still by 50 your house should be paid off. That gives you until 35 to save 20% down payment and a 15 year mortgage.

Nobody living in the south should ever think about a 30 year mortgage. I didn't switch to a 15 until it was too late.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


I've had a 10, (2) 15's, a 20, and now a 30.


Aug 14, 2020, 3:53 PM

I knew I'd never live in those places long, so I tried to pay down as much as possible while I was there. I did the very thing that Dave Ramsey is right about--moving is a losing deal, usually. But who wants to stay in the same house their entire life?

Now, I can't seem to sell this place, and I have a 30 year mortgage. Goal is to pay for the next house cash, or at least with <$100K mortgage.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Awesome! Nine years to go here!***

if i can dump another slum lord house


Aug 13, 2020, 3:20 PM

i'll be debt free too
still holding 2 slum lord hoses to boot

badge-donor-20yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

good for you - I was a week+ away from paying mine off


Aug 13, 2020, 5:47 PM

back in March. I have 4 years left, but I was gonna pay it all off lump sum, had the final number and was writing the check with my end-of-month payment. But Covid-mania hit, shook me a bit, so I decided I best hang onto my money until things got sorted out.

When/if things get back to semi-normal, I'm pulling the trigger. Can't wait.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I went back and forth as you mentioned, but went for it.


Aug 13, 2020, 7:22 PM

Still have reserve cash, but now way better cash flow

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You wired it from western union or something?


Aug 13, 2020, 5:55 PM

Ever heard of an online banking app?

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


they need confirmed funds for payoff. Either wire or bank


Aug 13, 2020, 7:24 PM

check. I've been paying online for years, and paying extra by phone authorizing draft, to make sure it was processed right- they screwed up a couple times and paid future monthly payments rather than all against principal.

Paid mine off years ago. Missed out on a ton of investment interest though. With today's low rates, I'd have to think twice before paying it off.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Congarts!


Aug 14, 2020, 3:45 PM

I'll be doing the same soon, hopefully. Of course the big difference is I will have no where else to live.

A buddy sold his castle in Awendaw late last year and bought a new house in Murrell's Inlet, in cash, from the proceeds. And paid off his wife's car, too.

Dem feelz.

Sweet


Aug 14, 2020, 7:22 PM

Im down to about $4k left on a vehicle and the mortgage. Feels great to be almost debt free and unemployed
