I just had an article/advertisement show up in my yahoo news feed. The title of the "article" was "How to get out of debt without getting a loan." Well no shit Sherlock. | ||

Right up there with "How to lose weight." "Eat less, exercise more." Um...duh? Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

There are tons of ads about " How to pay off your mortgage early " . It's just a pitch for a refinance . | |||

We paid our mortgage off early. I divided the monthly payment by four, rounded it up to a nice even number, and sent that to the bank each week. Whenever I had a little extra cash, I sent another check. We cleared the mortgage about a year ago. It feels good! הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Borrowing to pay bills is just trading one debt for another debt, I think is his point. -------------------------- Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H L Mencken I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. -- JALLEN 10/18/18 | |||

Writing and sending that last house payment is one of the best feelings in life. We did it 15 years ago and retired debt free and pay cash for everything. It isn't easy, but is doable if you set your mind to it. Jim ________________________ "If you can't be a good example, then you'll have to be a horrible warning" -Catherine Aird | |||

While I don't know the context of that article it probably is the same advice Dave Ramsey gives. Structure your debt differently than you do now. Commonsense approach many people don't think of. Getting shot is no achievement. Hitting your enemy is. NRA Endowment Member . NRA instructor | |||

Buy less than you can afford. If you can pay the monthly payments on a 400k house, buy a 300k house. If you can afford a new 40k truck every 5 years, buy a 30k truck every 10. I’m not rich, but I got three paid off vehicles, a nice savings and zero debt other than the mortgage. “Everybody wants a Sig in the sheets but a Glock on the streets.” -bionic218 04-02-2014 | |||

In the manner of Sam Kinison (may he R.I.P.)... LIVE WITHIN YOUR MEANS!!!! "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||
