Please let's celebrate everyone's success equally and not make it bigger and more is best.

I agree. Also it's perhaps not the extent of debt but the degree of discomfort experienced in relation to it that is more influential in helping a person decide to do something about it. At the end of the day we all want to feel better. And being debt-free would feel pretty good, I imagine, regardless of how enormous the debt was.
The joy of the DFW boards, for me, is in reading about the different routes to solvency, and the creative ways in which people manage their money, tackle their problems, share their experiences and befriend and support each other through the ups and downs of their respective journeys. It has certainly enhanced and enriched my own approach to finance, and has improved my relationship with money.
It's never been about how big anyone's debt was.“All shall be well, and all shall be well and all manner of thing shall be well.”0
