Well done, Kristofer!!

No feeling like it. I find myself with my home paid off, both cars paid off, and no cc debt. A great place to be.

Today I paid off over $30,000 in credit debt. I am free.
I'm please that your now debt free, I'm just curious as to know as to what watch you own and why you bring this to the Rolex watch forum?

Great job paying off the debt. Just take a deep breathe and wait several months before buying anything. I see too many people become debt free and all of a sudden they gain this large increase in cash flow. They just turn around and jump right back into debt "because the can afford the payment" with their new increase in funds.
