Rothman, I will look into the backdoor Roth IRA's when I get to that point. I had heard of that before, so that was the plan.
Got 2 more CC paid off. Would have paid a 3rd off but had to get 4 new tires on the SUV due to the wire belts showing on one. Life is much easier when you have the cash to battle these unexpected expenses. Before, I would have had a heart attack, $1000 for 4 new tires. Keeping some out of this check to probably put back into savings once I see how much my wife spends on a trip back to our hometown for a couple weeks.
Keep trudging along, paying it all down.
Credit cards: $15,000 - $12,700 - $12,450
Other charge accounts: $6,700 - $5,300 - $4,700
Student loans: $23,000 - $22,500 - $22,400
Car loan: $23,000 - $19,000 - $18,700
Mortgage: $154,000 - $152,000 - $151,800
Checking: $2,000
Savings: $1,000
401k: $7,200 (mis-stated almost $8k in other post, it was almost $7k)
Roth IRA/Spousal Roth IRA: $800
I know it is not like a lot of the super-wealthy on here, but still getting myself out of debt and some money in the bank is good for me. Used to have $0 or -$ before the next paycheck hit a year ago, what a difference a year can make.
