Title

Sometimes I wish I could just go home and do nothing. I have a number of side projects that are following me around though, which I wish I had more time to focus on, but I haven't been that lucky. What bothers me about growing up is you end up getting out of school which I know for most of us wasn't very desirable anyhow, you start working, making money, but you end up being a slave to your job because you need to pay bills.

The only good news I have is, I have 34K left in loans to pay. I just need to buy an engagement ring for my g/f first which can be close to 2K. Then I will save money a little longer until I have the right amount, then I will start viciously attacking those loans with everything I have. I will pay off 5K of one of my loans, hopefully that will lower my damn payments so that my principle will paid off quicker. Right now I am getting hammered with interest because the federal rates are up there. My private loan has a lower rate, but it is variable which works out well for now until it goes up.

I just can't wait for the day where my loans are paid off and I will have 300+ more dollars of disposable income (or more hopefully).

What would solve all of my problems right now is if I was making 100K+ a year or more. I would definitely have more than enough money to cover all of my expenses, savings and aggressively pay off my loans. I wouldn't have to worry about anything except job loss.
