Finally Mortgage Free !

notes1

Made my final payment today for my mortgage. 

I have not been a major contributor to these forums for a few years as I have just been busy working intensely (although previously I was active in the Debt Free Wannabe forums under a different username but that was a few years ago now). Although I haven't been posting,  I do regularly pop in and read your posts, so thanks to everyone who posts on here, and kept my motivation up. 

This has allowed me to give my 6 months notice to work and enable me to do something less stressful moving forward.

Thanks All, it’s amazing how after a couple of years saving it becomes the normal and before you know it, MF date crops up and is sitting on your doorstep. I just put all my pay rises and bonuses towards it. Still not entirely sunk in yet. I even got a “congratulations” from the person on the phone at nationwide….that’s a first 😀.

Well done!!

No all feels the same. I don’t know how long it will take to sink in. I know I need to become less stressed and start enjoying life more as in an awful job ( pays very very well but too stressful and never switch off). Now for a bit of me time soon.

I know the feeling somewhat myself. 

Well, now you can explore other avenues, even if it's reduced hours, or simply having the ability to be a bit bolder and ballsier in work (may even work to your advantage being able to cut through all the BS).  Don't underestimate your power, especially now that you don't need the job
