The slow and (hopefully) steady climb continues. Again the most exciting thing from my net worth report is that my car is almost paid off. I can’t help but keep thinking how great adding that money to my debt payments is going to feel.

Within the next month or so, I should learn what my financial aid package will be for grad school – I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. Even though I live on my own, I bring in a fairly good salary and personal debt isn’t taken into account when deciding how much support a student will need. I’ve already begun to look at my budget to see how I can make it work harder for both my debt payments and in preparation for school in the fall.
