It's so quiet on here! Any financial "wins" this summer?

I Hope you all are having a great summer!

It’s been busy with kids out of school, family visits, vacations, and of course, work. I was SUPER excited to see the my PSLF went through finally, after jumping through so many hoops. But it was worth it.

PSLF was started under President George W Bush and it has a quite a history.

I’ll be taking a brief trip to DC this fall for work, and that should be a leaning experience- I have never been. So any advice or suggestions will be welcome. I have already started saving.

Any financial wins you want to shout out? :grin:

Awesome to hear your loan forgiveness went through, that’s a huge financial win. Congrats! My summer goals were stretched due to much higher than expected medical bills (still crossing fingers on the insurance denial appeal) however I did succeed getting my kids 529 started (adding monthly), funded a couple of vacations / visits with family, and paid off my car loan 2 years ahead of schedule.

Congrats on your loan forgiveness! Recent financial wins include paying down credit card debt. I celebrate each monthly payment as it gets me closer to my goal. Enjoy your trip to DC. There is so much to see and do!

Thanks Brigat! Congratulations to you as well! I would eventually love to get to no debt, but that’s a longer journey- still paying on a mortgage. It’s nice to see a real person on here. SO MUCH spam lately!

Interesting you should mention about Spam, @kellyfromkeene . I’ve been seeing posts that don’t appear to come directly from regular community members with regular concerns. It’s almost like some are written by companies or people who think they are writers/editors for the PH. I’m not sure.

Oh, and I have not been winning this summer :wink:. It’s been a long, hard, blazing hot summer here in Texas, plus my A/C condenser died. Hello, new expense.

There is so much spam! And much of it gets blocked before it’s even posted. I miss the old PH group.

I didn’t realize that lots of things get blocked. I agree that it is quiet, but I’ve not been home much so don’t get to read the posts as much now. I do keep up with the daily newsletter emails as they come in. I am so ready for Fall.
