    My first debt I paid off was a 500 dollar finance. It was a monthly payment of 49. I did the math it was about 9 months early of a payoff. My mind was blown it would take that long. Looking at that really inspires me.

    girl, living in California is expensive. My dad, my step-mom, my step-brother, and I are living in a 2 bed 1 bath apartment and the rent is almost $1800 a month.
    My boyfriend and I are saving up to move out of California next November. We have decided between Oregon or Washington.
