This is What Gazelle Intensity Looks Like

The Boy and I spent some time looking at an amortization schedule the other day. That's when  we relized that we're scarily close to paying off our house loan.

Now I'm not saying that we're going to pay off the house next month or even next year. However, we've only been in the Hayley house since May 2009 with a 15-year mortgage that we've paid extra on, bringing us very close to pay-off time.

Close enough to get excited and laser focused.

Dave Ramsey would say we have "Gazelle itensity."

I built this using a couple of different charts - download your own here.

Motivation is what it's all about.
