Hey GaGirl ;);). Now that you're financially free, wanna adopt me?
LOL!!! Wish I could, but unfortunately I am still not quite finanacially free. Still have a car note and a mortgage. [&:]
Thanks Noname. Good for you! Working on getting there. At least I can write off the interest on the home for now.
ord sgt 05-16-2008, 01:31 PM Congrats on the pay-offs. That money can be used to help pay down the other debts and become more debt free!!

Exactly! The car is next on the list. [sm=icon_sneaky.gif]
capt775 05-16-2008, 02:03 PM Paid off the bikes huh? Blah, Blah, Blah.:D Just kiddin' GA. Congrats. I'm gonna do it when I retire with my vacation money they owe me. But, stupid me, I'll probably go get me that Buell or Triumph I've been wanting to add to my grage.
Now get out there and ride the wheels off this weekend.
GeorgiaGirl 05-16-2008, 02:10 PM Thanks Cap. I plan to. :)
maxxcat 05-16-2008, 02:37 PM Good for you GAGirl. My car is paid for. I live in an apartment so I have no mortgage (for now). The alimony I pay is over in September (woo hoo!). And I plan on paying off the Sporty by the end of the year. I also plan on selling the Sporty sometime next year and buy a Softail Custom, CASH!
JBaker421 05-16-2008, 02:47 PM Wow, you said "TGIF and I did it!" I'm so disappointed - thoughtthe thread was gonna be really racy. :D
Congrats on paying the notes. Debt sucks.Wayta go. :)
GeorgiaGirl 05-16-2008, 02:55 PM Ha! JB, it's early yet. ;)Give a girl time. Maxxcat, sounds like you're a man with a plan. Best of luck there. Thanks guys.
chiabate 05-16-2008, 03:27 PM Congrats for sure. You can write off mortgage interest but not any of the other notes, get rid of 'em when you can.
Night Crawler 05-16-2008, 03:33 PM GAGirl: I wish I would have followed your lead on those Nigerian emails and faxes! :)
Congratulations – clear titles are just plain fantastic!
Have a great weekend!

GAGirl: I wish I would have followed your lead on those Nigerian emails and faxes! :)
LMAO!!! Not me! I swear! [sm=icon_sneaky.gif] Seriously though, god knows I have gotten my fair share of those through marketing horses. Fortunately they all sound alike so once you've read one, you've essentially read them all. :eek:
TONY STAR 05-16-2008, 04:27 PM Hi Karen.......remember to PM when it gets "RACY"[sm=bounceybounce.gif] By the way congrats
harleydude68 05-16-2008, 04:40 PM Gagirl, That is awesome WTG. There is nothing better than making a final payment on whatever. So get out there and enjoy YOUR ride. :D
dog155 05-16-2008, 06:59 PM Awesome!! GAGIRL,do they look any different? Both of mine are paid for as well,enjoy the maintaince.
Welcome to the club... it is a great felling for sure.
Now you can double up on the that car payment and scoot that on out too...
GeorgiaGirl 05-16-2008, 08:42 PM It is a good feeling. Thanks guys. You all have a great weekend and ride safe.
John TN 05-16-2008, 08:54 PM Congrats Karen.[sm=icon_cheers.gif] It is a good feeling as you said.
Mach1 05-16-2008, 09:06 PM Good stuff! Glad to hear it.;)
goodbirds 05-17-2008, 12:09 AM I am down to just a small mortgage. Boy, in retirement with fixed income and rising prices, its the only way to be.
A friend of mine paid for his new Sporty Custom 1200 with accumulated sick leave when he retired. His license plate frame says "Paid for with Sick Leave". LOL.
Like someone said, interest is a stupid tax. [8D]
GONZEE 05-17-2008, 12:20 AM a great feeling. i paid mine off 1 year ago. CONGRATS![sm=deal.gif][sm=smiley20.gif]
FIREFIGHTER883 05-17-2008, 09:25 AM Gongrats Karen that is huge.
Dirty al
JimTJr 05-17-2008, 09:44 AM Congrats GAgirl, it is a good feeling to pay something off! Then you and "Nancy" don't have a hand in it. JUST YOU! (Fi"Nancy")
My bike is free and clear, but I am working on my truck. Borrowed 26k, down to 17k this month. Paying an extra 100 or so a month on it. Should have it payed off at least two years early! Going to be putting the house on the market. And moving west about 2 hrs with my job. (have substantial equity in the house, lived in it for 18 yrs, and put on a 500 sq ft addition myself...(Sweat equity) Property in the Sedalia area is MUCH more reasonable, and my pay is going up! So things are looking up!
Only thing is, after the trucks paid off, MAYBE before. I will either have two HDs, or sell mine and get a SG.... Soooo probably have another payment for a short while....
GeorgiaGirl 05-17-2008, 10:16 AM With as much as we have to drive commuting to and from our jobs and the mileage we rack up, we will probably continue to have a car note, more often than not. So getting the bikes and my horse trailer paid off was huge and will free up about $1200 a month which will help alot, particularly given present gas prices. We have gone from paying $400 a month in auto gas to over $600. :eek:
Lincoln33 05-17-2008, 04:08 PM I paid mine off early too, it was a relief and felt good when I got the title in the mail.
UPSGUY 05-18-2008, 08:40 AM Congrats!!!! All we had left was my RK and mortgage unitl i went out and bought back a bike i sold last Oct. so by this time next year all i will owe on is the house!!!!!!!
Twincam Dave 05-18-2008, 08:48 AM I smell party !!!!!!!!
