i have a saying when i’m oncall which i am this week “close your eyes and think of the money”

im a few weeks away from hitting another milestone paying off my mortgage so i just try to think about it being fully paid off

also sadly i could not do what you do, im just getting out of bed now :/

unless you have late starters

Oh I'm not a morning person and lying in bed is my true vocation in life.

As for paying off your mortgage, bloody hell well done indeed. I seem to recall that you said something about being 37, is that correct ?

ah 39 these days! and sorry i have milestones on paying it off not paying it off fully (that’s the dream!), i have 5k more till 100k in offset (milestone) then Im switching to paying the mortgage directly as Im happy with 100k emergency fund, then 10k more till 100k left owing the bank (another milestone) then 50k then 0!

Hopefully all 4 milestones hit in the next 2 years

also this is the most ive ever said milestones

milestones!

Being a cranky pants because she's taking her sub very seriously. Probably a Reddit mod too.

As for your party, so you're saying that we are nothing special then ?
