So I'm getting excited that we are actually starting to get close to paying off the house. Excited enough that I have postponed the trip to Disney again.... The imaginary total (call it this because it includes the solitaire money won, but that hasn't been paid to us yet) is down below 58K today. It hit the 57Ks this morning when I was able to take out another 100 on the solitaire.
This really has me excited, and I'm also really excited about the possibility of getting a million in the bank. Yep, forget everything else, let's just skip to the million. Don't get me wrong, there is going to be celebrations all along the way, but as soon as we hit that first million, and I have no doubt we will, that will be a very good day. And then we hit the 2nd and 3rd million, that will be even better. If we can get that 3rd million in less than 20 years, I will be very very happy and will be able to retire. I have no idea if we are going to be able to make this happen, but for some reason, I truely believe we will. Just think, 3 million in the bank, 5% intrest....net 150K a year. And for what, for doing absolutely nothing, just letting money sit in an account :-)
