    Pearl of wisdon: Never give up, always see the light at the end of the tunnel, be strict with spending, it'll be worth it in the end when you can treat yourself with your own money and not someone else's. Always ask yourself "Do I need this or do I want it?". Good luck to everyone :)

    I forgot to mention that the timing of becoming debt-free is also quite handy, as I have paid my last payment last month, one more month at work, then I'm moving to Dubai to pursue a new life and to further my career. It's quite strange how things work out in the end
