Yay! Have just paid off biggest debt!

Boy did it hurt handing over the money... but now that's my car paid off and only one credit card left! Not long to go now!!

As much as it was painful seeing the hard-earned money vanish from my bank account, it certainly feels good to have that debt gone!

    Well done indeed! That must feel great! Especially if it's your car you paid off (and not a typo where you meant to put card) because then it has become an asset!

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton
