For one, you’re motivated. And two, you’re awesome.

You’re going to continue to learn new ways to save money, and every extra dollar you can scrounge up to throw at debt will make a big difference.

Oh, and yeah I lived in Briscoe during my freshman year and holy cow man, that’s an expensive way to live! I think it was like $680 or something per month for crappy food and a tiny bit of space.

I saved so much money when I lived off campus, but I wish I had a clue and cut my expenses and avoided eating so much fast food and Union junk. Maybe I would have had less debt upon graduation. Oh well.
