UGH !!

STUDENT LOAN DEBT

Are any of you still paying off student loans from the 90's. I have a student loan from 1998 that I am still paying. Actually, I did not start paying it until once I was finished with school- well, then I took a couple of deferments so I only started paying it about 3 years ago. Another WONDERFUL (sarcastic) perk is that my monthly payment is only $25.00. While I am thrilled that I am not bound to make larger payments, at this rate it will take me a little over 7 years to get it paid off. I would like to pay more to this nagging pesky little monthly bill, but the reality is that the interest rate for my student loan is incredibly low and it makes no sense to pay it off before I pay off my high interest credit cards.

Total from cashcrate so far (just since Saturday) is (drum-roll please) $41.13....

Also, I am going through my closet to get rid of clothes that I just don't wear anymore... I am going to list them on ebay. Hopefully this will generate some additional income... A little extra cash wil help, especially at the pump... I don't want to have to take out a loan for my next fill-up...
