Status

I am beyond tired right now. I was physically and mentally exausted last week, so I skipped going to the gym. I am mentally spent this week. I have been working very hard since my boss blew up on me. I have done such a good job he has consistently told me how much he likes what I have come up with.

That part aside, I am quite nervous about the next 2 months. I need them to be over already so I can focus on bigger important things. I think, I am unsure, but I think I am finished paying for all of the big expensive things connected to this wedding. Right now it is attendance. I need to robo call people who have not rsvp'd yet to get a definite yes or no. Either way I am pretty sure I am not going to get 90 people to show, no big deal, we have about 68 right now. Which isn't bad considering we invited 110.

As soon as this is all over I will be focusing on getting a home or moving to another rental. I will then start to aggresively pay off my student debt. I estimate that I can pay off my federal loans before the end of next year.

For right now I need to file a complaint with Miami-Dade County against the douche bag owner of a lot in the city of NMB. This fuck tard won't cooperate with me regarding my car's repair needs.

Slightly More Clarity

I have recently executed a bunch of large decisions that I am proud of that are going to help me immensely in the following year.

I sold my car and leased a new one. This was a brilliant move because even though I have a new monthly bill on my shoulders, I am getting back about $8,500 for my old car in a private sale while the getting is good as they say.

I have saved enough money to pay the rest of my wedding's venue and I shouldn't feel much of a hit because of the car sale.

After some investigations, I found that student loan companies do not like to recalculate your monthly bill. Therefore you are much better off paying down your student debt chunks at a time, while paying the monthly bill.

Next year I will start my aggressive payoff by paying down my federal loans first in 5K chunks, and then I will pay off my private loan in 5K chunks. I approximately have 6 - 5K chunks to pay off and I will be free of my debt monsters.

I will then take the money I was paying towards my student debt and start saving that aggressively.

I will figure out my retirement options next year. And possibly enroll in a plan.

My main goal is to save up 250,000 dollars of cushion money so I can be some what shielded from any forseeable layoffs.
