I'm finally debt free for the second time in the last few years. This is excluding a smallish mortgage of £40k but this will be gone in the next couple of years.
I can say with confidence that my debt free status will not change and I will not be in that position again. How do I know this? It's because for the first time possibly ever I work to a sensible budget. I do still use my credit card but pay it off on receipt of the statement and I'm OCD about getting it back to a zero balance.
I think the budget is key no matter what your level of debt or non debt.
