Incorrect Calculations

Okay, I can't believe that for the past 4 months I managed to completely forget about the previous student loans that I took out. Basically, I have been calculating my total debt without considering all my Student Loans..AAARRRGGGGHHHH...I feel like an idiot. I realize the mistake last week but could not bring myself to put it in writing (as though the loan would disappear)..So here's my total outstanding debt as of today:

October 18, 2010
Sallie Mae $16,567.19
Direct Loans $4,407.91
Pending Direct Loans $6,867.00
(Addition of one more)
Pending Direct Loans $4,763.00

Visa $967.00

Grand total $28,809.10
Correction $33,572.10
I am feeling so deflated lately. This just added to my frustration and somewhat desperation. I know its only debt but I feel like I need to clear this last debt in my life so it doesn't feel like an anchor and what do you know the anchor got heavier since I haven't been paying attention. As I shared on my last post, I decided to finish college which will only be a few more courses. There is no way that I can take out any more loans!! I refuse to do so.

  1. Don't be down. There is no better investment than your education. I started out with a ton of debt and it took me 7 years to pay it off. The liberation I felt was amazing. However, it was worth it!!

    If you were upset about being in debt because you bought a bunch of jewelry or something, then I would allow you to be upset.
