Major Milestone

August 26th, 2009 at 05:49 pm

My combined retirement accounts have totaled over six figures for some time now, but for the first time I had a single account that reached six figures. I've been waiting on that to happen, with the way the stock market has been rising in recent weeks. I'm pretty excited to be able to pull up an account and see six figures. I even printed it out so I could remember the day I first saw that. I'm pretty sure that the stock market will be rising and falling for some time, but it was exciting to see this morning.

Student Loan

August 1st Sallie Mae was once again in my life. Yep, back to paying student loans. I finished graduate school in December so the grace period has ended. On the bright side, the sooner I'm paying the sooner I get her back out of my life!
