You paid off YOUR HOUSE! Fantastic job, you guys!! 👏

#repost @smattguy02

WE'RE DEBT FREE!!! Mortgage and all!

We paid off the last $149,806.88 on our house in 36 months!

Our journey to debt freedom started in 2013 with Financial Peace University. We paid off all of our student loans and a car loan in one year, and then coasted on steps 4 & 6 for a while. In 2018 we decided to get gazelle intense about paying off our house. We were "sick and tired of being sick and tired".

We buckled down, slashed the budget, and dumped anything extra on the mortgage. We set a goal to pay off our house in 3 years, and we hit our goal! During this time we also cash flowed a new-to-us car while still contributing to retirement. We couldn't have done all of this without Dave Ramsey's guidance, support from family and friends, a lot of dedication, hard work, and God's help. Hitting Baby Step 7 at ages 35 and 36 feels amazing!

Debt is normal, but we're happy being "weird people" and having absolutely no debt. Because of our budgeting, we're able to give more than ever before. As Dave says, "live like no one else, so that later you can live and give like no one else." We feel very blessed to be in that position. We left the bank and grabbed a celebratory drink, and "tipped the bill" to kick off our increased generosity. Excited for the next chapter!

Proverbs 22:7
The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender.

Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
