Free at Last, Debt Free at Last

As of today (Monday June 14, 2010) I, Christine “Morty” Mortensen, will officially be debt free for the first time since college!

Aside from a pesky student loan I’m almost done repaying I can actually start saving again. Oh how sweet it feels!

Considering that the U.S. average credit card debt per household is a staggering $15,519 I feel very fortunate. Thanks mom! Just about everything I learned about my personal finances I learned from you.

Woo-Hoo!
