My advise to you is for you to prioritize those debts with high interest rates. It can help you trim down your interest expenses to your loans. So come to think of it, most of your money will surely pay your principal than the one that will shoulder all the interests. I totally understand the feeling of worrying too many small amount of loans than one big loan. However, you need to be practical or think more wisely in this case.

I think I graduated university (went back to school when my oldest was 4 months old) with $25k in student loans in 1992. I worked part-time as well my last two years. When I graduated, I was making $23k/year as an articling student. It took about 2 1/2 years to pay off my student loans. I fell into debt again after that, so don’t stop being vigilant – it sounds like you’re a step ahead of where I was in that respect. But with time, it’s definitely possible.
Good luck to you both!

Hi Chris – $150K is a lot of debt, but given it’s mostly student loans, I’m assuming you guys have some pretty nifty degrees? Can you elaborate more on your income levels?

The great thing is that none of your debt seems to be high interest. That means you'll make progress on your payments. You have a little bit in a lot of places. I think you'll like seeing this dwindle and the number of accounts go down! Good for you! Best of luck in your progress. .-= The Little Dough Girl´s lastest post ..Well, that's a pretty tasty deal. =-.
