I just refinanced my student loans because my interest rate was crazy high. I bumped up my monthly payment to the nearest $100, and I think I should have it paid off in 7 years (I shaved off 4 years with the refinance). It's still going to be a long time, but I'd like to start applying our tax return/bonuses to it to help pay it off a little faster. Unfortunately, it seems like we always have some sort of expense that prevents us from doing that.

Are you in my life right now lol. We say that every year... we'll use one bonus to pay off student loans ... then life happens. I've sadly just accepted them as a part of the budget I don't even notice them any more

mominthemaking14 I know, right? But then I catch myself dreaming about the day the loans are paid off and that money is available for other things. No student loan payment + no daycare payment... we could get a vacation house! I'm probably jinxing myself and I'll probably end up having the kid that wants to play in 3948372 travel team leagues or plays some super expensive instrument. Or both. When do kids get cheaper?
