Maybe you remember that last month when I posted my net worth, I was a little annoyed because we supposedly put over $250 towards our student loans and they only went down $77.
Upon closer inspection of last month’s finances, I noticed Bird’s loan payment wasn’t automatically deducted like it usually is. I logged into Sallie Mae and that’s when I realized her loans were deferred because she’s back in school. I kind of forgot that happens. So really in February, we only paid my $115 payment and now it all makes a lot more sense.
After discussing the issue, Bird and I have decided that we will continue to pay her loans off as regulary scheduled. We already had them built into the budget and we don’t have a good reason to delay the payoff any longer than it already is.
