yep....sending off the last mortgage payment on my house tommorrow...after sending off my significant other a couple of years ago....things got tuff....but i pulled it all together....buckled down....caught my junk up....that she done to put me behind....and kinda just reeled it all in. i do suppose im kinda lucky to be able to pay of a home mortgage by the time im 46....but i worked my ass off to do it. one thing i dont understand is that the mortgage company would not accept the money from my checking account for the last payment....said it had to be in paper form....check or money order....go figure . anyway....1 home paid off...1 to go......kev

Congrats Kev! Really good to see things working out so well - especially after having such a rough road to get there! I think it's all the good karma you've put out there. Well that and an assload of hard work...

Right on kev! Call Dave Ramsay & scream I’m Debt Frreee !
My father in law tried to make a 15,000 dollar last mortgage payment in cash! The bank wouldn’t accept it! Legal tender So he sued & it got real nasty I think he ended up with the house without making that payment. Ha ha

Congrates! I know how hard you worked at this. I'm 45 and should have mine paid off within 7 years! It is a great feeling to know that you are responsible enough (and discliplined) enough to accomplish such a goal! Congrates again!

ya know...over the last few years with the down turn in the economy...suddenly becoming single....little brother dying...one income....having to lay good folks off...i was constantly worried that i wasnt going to be able to do it...wondering if i would even have a job at times.
it never crossed my mind to pat myself on the back for making the last payment happen....when i did make the last payment the other day...all i felt was lucky...and relief....maybe i should pat myself on the back a little...thanks everybody...kev.
