Ruminating

I paid my house off yesterday and it was really quite an emotional rush! I was financially upside down when I retired and the imbalance needed to be dealt with immediately. It meant living strapped economically for six years and some of my friends and family questioned that draconian concept. As I read years ago, "If a fool persists in his folly, he becomes wise." So... I can't say that I'm any wiser, but it sure is easier to live on my new budget.
