On today's episode, I'm sharing how John and I were able to pay off John's student loans. John had around $20,000 in student loans and prior to getting married, he had paid off a good portion. After the wedding & honeymoon, we decided to get crazy and pay off the remaining balance in just THREE months.
I understand that things may seem a little "easier" because we are a two-income household, but we still make sacrifices and live way below our means in order to meet our goals.
How We Did It
+ John paid rent & utilities while my paychecks went towards loans
+ Following a budget
+ Taking money from our 'overfunded' emergency fund
+ Putting monetary wedding gifts towards the debt
+ PERSEVERANCE!!!!
